Neural substrates of sarcasm: a functional magnetic-resonance imaging study.
The understanding of sarcasm reflects a complex process, which involves recognizing the beliefs of the speaker. There is a clear association between deficits in mentalizing, which is the ability to understand other people's behavior in terms of their mental state, and the understanding of sarcasm in individuals with autistic spectrum disorders. This suggests that mentalizing is important in pra...
متن کاملThe neural substrates of the warning effect: A functional magnetic resonance imaging study
To test the hypothesis the warning effect is mediated by the top-down attentional modulation of the motor system, we conducted functional MRI using a Go/No-Go task with visual and auditory warning stimuli. For aurally-warned, visually-prompted trials, the auditory warning stimulus was presented for 1500ms, during which visual cues were presented that prompted either Go or No-Go responses. The s...
متن کاملAsymmetrical neural substrates of tactile discrimination in humans: a functional magnetic resonance imaging study.
The left-hand advantage seen during tactile discrimination tasks suggests hemispheric-processing asymmetry, although its neural substrates are not well known. We used functional magnetic resonance imaging to evaluate the laterality of the neural substrates involved in tactile discrimination in 19 normal volunteers. Passive tactile discrimination tasks, along with appropriate control tasks, were...
متن کاملThe neural substrates of writing: A functional magnetic resonance imaging study
Background: Hypotheses regarding the neural substrates of writing have been derived from the study of individuals with acquired agraphia. Functional neuroimaging offers another methodology to test these hypotheses in neurologically intact individuals. Aims: This study was designed to identify possible neural substrates for the linguistic and motor components of writing in normal English-speakin...
