Neurotypology of Sentence Comprehension: Cross-Linguistic Difference in Canonical Word Order Affects Brain Responses during Sentence Comprehension
While a clear variability of canonical word order across languages has been found, such a finding is not reflected in recent neuroimaging studies of language processing. Languages having a canonical word order of SubjectObject-Verb (SOV) in a sentence make up approximately 43% of world languages, while languages having a SubjectVerb-Object (SVO) word order make up approximately 37%. Sufficient ...
متن کاملEmbodied sentence comprehension 1 EMBODIED SENTENCE COMPREHENSION
ions are being discussed in other chapters in this book (Barsalou & WiemerHastings, this volume; Gibbs, this volume; Prinz, this volume). 6.0 Conclusion and outlook We started this chapter by comparing two perspectives on cognition in general and on language comprehension in particular. According to the traditional perspective, language comprehension involves the activation and integration of d...
متن کاملNaturalistic Sentence Comprehension in the Brain
The cognitive neuroscience of language relies largely on controlled experiments that are different from the everyday situations in which we use language. This review describes an approach that studies specific aspects of sentence comprehension in the brain using data collected while participants perform an everyday task, such as listening to a story. The approach uses ‘neuro-computational’ mode...
متن کاملSentence Comprehension in Aphasia
We show in this chapter that selective aphasic deficits dissociate distinct language processing systems. To this end, we focus on disruptions of lexical access that appear to implicate initial stages of sentence comprehension. The analyses we present turn on comparisons between agrammatic (Broca's) aphasic patients and paragrammatic (Wernicke's) aphasic patients. By the former we mean roughly, ...
متن کاملBrain activation modulated by sentence comprehension.
The comprehension of visually presented sentences produces brain activation that increases with the linguistic complexity of the sentence. The volume of neural tissue activated (number of voxels) during sentence comprehension was measured with echo-planar functional magnetic resonance imaging. The modulation of the volume of activation by sentence complexity was observed in a network of four ar...
