One of the challenges to functional neuroimaging is to understand how the component
processes of reading comprehension emerge from the neural activity in a network of brain …

Functional neuroimaging previously has been considered to provide inadequate temporal
resolution to study changes of brain states as a function of cognitive computations; however …

Humans have a striking capacity to combine words into sentences that express new
meanings. Previous research has identified key brain regions involved in this capacity, but …

Sentence comprehension requires the retrieval of single word information from long-term
memory, and the integration of this information into multiword representations. The current …

Abstract Language comprehension is neurally underpinned by a network of collaborating
cortical processing centers; individual differences in comprehension must be related to …

We used functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to identify brain regions involved in
the process of mapping coherent discourse onto a developing mental representation. We …

An event-related functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) paradigm was used to
specify those brain areas supporting the processing of sentence-level semantic and …

We monitored regional cerebral activity with BOLD fMRI while subjects were presented
written sentences differing in their grammatical structure (subject‐relative or object‐relative …

Cortical regions engaged by sentence processing were mapped using functional MRI. The
influence of input modality (spoken word vs. print input) and parsing difficulty (sentences …

This study examined brain activation while participants read or listened to high-imagery
sentences like The number eight when rotated 90 degrees looks like a pair of spectacles or …
