The anatomy of language has been investigated with PET or fMRI for more than 20years.
Here I attempt to provide an overview of the brain areas associated with heard speech …

A considerable body of evidence has accumulated over recent years on the functions of the
default-mode network (DMN)–a set of brain regions whose activity is high when the mind is …

A neglected question regarding cognitive control is how control processes might detect
situations calling for their involvement. The authors propose here that the demand for control …

Functional imaging studies have shown that certain brain regions, including posterior
cingulate cortex (PCC) and ventral anterior cingulate cortex (vACC), consistently show …

Objective: To devise a short bedside cognitive and behavioral battery to assess frontal lobe
functions. Methods: The designed battery consists of six subtests exploring the following …

Currently, there is debate among scholars regarding how to operationalize and measure
executive functions. These functions generally are referred to as “supervisory” cognitive …

This paper presents the results of a comprehensive meta-analysis of the relevant imaging
literature on word production (82 experiments). In addition to the spatial overlap of activated …

Positron emission tomography (PET) and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI)

This book is the outcome of over 25 years of research into neurolinguistic aspects of
bilingualism. It will therefore draw extensively on scattered previously published material …

The advent of functional neuroimaging has allowed tremendous advances in our
