Neural systems underlying British Sign Language and audio-visual English processing in native users.
In order to understand the evolution of human language, it is necessary to explore the neural systems that support language processing in its many forms. In particular, it is informative to separate those mechanisms that may have evolved for sensory processing (hearing) from those that have evolved to represent events and actions symbolically (language). To what extent are the brain systems tha...
متن کاملNeural systems underlying spatial language in American Sign Language.
A [(15)O]water PET experiment was conducted to investigate the neural regions engaged in processing constructions unique to signed languages: classifier predicates in which the position of the hands in signing space schematically represents spatial relations among objects. Ten deaf native signers viewed line drawings depicting a spatial relation between two objects (e.g., a cup on a table) and ...

چارچوب نظری این مطالعه شامل یک گزارش عملکردی است و مبتنی بر تعریف شیفرین (1987) از مدل چند بعدی وابستگی مطالب است. این مطالعه 10 نشانگر گفتمان (بنابراین ، بله ، بسیار خوب ، باشه ، می دانید ، خوب ، چون، من فکر می کنم ، منظور من این است که ، در واقع) را با توجه به الگوی عملکردی مشلر(1994) در مورد نشانگرهای گفتمان طبقه بندی می کند. این مطالعه به بررسی مشخصات وقوع این عناصر در گفتار فی البداهه دانش...
15 صفحه اولNeural systems underlying lexical retrieval for sign language.
Positron emission tomography was used to investigate whether signed languages exhibit the same neural organization for lexical retrieval within classical and non-classical language areas as has been described for spoken English. Ten deaf native American sign language (ASL) signers were shown pictures of unique entities (famous persons) and non-unique entities (animals) and were asked to name ea...
متن کاملHand and Mouth: Cortical Correlates of Lexical Processing in British Sign Language and Speechreading English
Spoken languages use one set of articulators -- the vocal tract, whereas signed languages use multiple articulators, including both manual and facial actions. How sensitive are the cortical circuits for language processing to the particular articulators that are observed? This question can only be addressed with participants who use both speech and a signed language. In this study, we used func...
