Semantic processing is a central component of language and cognition. The anterior
temporal lobe is postulated to be a key hub for semantic processing, but the posterior …

The dual-hub account posits that the neural organization of semantic knowledge is
segregated by the type of semantic relation with anterior temporal lobe (ATL) specializing for …

Children's ability to retrieve word meanings and incorporate them into sentences, along with
the neural structures that support these skills, continues to evolve throughout adolescence …
