Past studies with various paradigms reveal that the left inferior prefrontal and mid-superior temporal regions play a crucial role in semantic processing. Those studies, however, typically utilize words having a precise and dominant meaning as stimuli and have not manipulated le...
متن کاملAbstract Word Deficits in Aphasia: Evidence From Semantic Priming
