Defining a left-lateralized response specific to intelligible speech using fMRI.
Functional imaging studies of language have shown bilateral superior temporal activations in response to 'passive' perception of speech when the baseline condition did not control for the acoustic complexity of speech. Controlling for this complexity demonstrates speech-specific processing lateralized to the left temporal lobe, and our recent positron emission tomography study has emphasized a ...
متن کاملA left-lateralized network for reading Chinese words: a 3 T fMRI study.
fMRI was used to investigate brain organization for reading in Chinese. Subjects were shown two-character Chinese words. A control task was used to eliminate the non-linguistic visual and motor confounds. Results show that naming of Chinese logographs is characterized by left-lateralized neuronal networks for the processing of orthographic, phonological, and semantic attributes. The orchestrati...
متن کاملIdentification of a pathway for intelligible speech in the left temporal lobe.
It has been proposed that the identification of sounds, including species-specific vocalizations, by primates depends on anterior projections from the primary auditory cortex, an auditory pathway analogous to the ventral route proposed for the visual identification of objects. We have identified a similar route in the human for understanding intelligible speech. Using PET imaging to identify se...
متن کاملDual-echo fMRI can detect activations in inferior temporal lobe during intelligible speech comprehension
The neural basis of speech comprehension has been investigated intensively during the past few decades. Incoming auditory signals are analysed for speech-like patterns and meaningful information can be extracted by mapping these sounds onto stored semantic representations. Investigation into the neural basis of speech comprehension has largely focused on the temporal lobe, in particular the sup...
متن کاملHierarchical organization of human auditory cortex: evidence from acoustic invariance in the response to intelligible speech.
Hierarchical organization of human auditory cortex has been inferred from functional imaging observations that core regions respond to simple stimuli (tones) whereas downstream regions are selectively responsive to more complex stimuli (band-pass noise, speech). It is assumed that core regions code low-level features, which are combined at higher levels in the auditory system to yield more abst...
