Reading relies on a left-lateralized brain system, including occipito-temporal (OTC), temporo-
parietal, and inferior frontal (IFC) cortices. Neuroimaging studies have investigated whether …

The present study compared the neural correlates of language processing in children and
adult Spanish–English bilinguals. Participants were asked to perform a visual lexical …

Brain imaging studies have identified a left‐lateralized network of regions that are engaged
when monolinguals read. However, for individuals who are native speakers of two …

Reading in a second language (L2) is a complex task that entails an interaction between L2
and the native language (L1). To study the underlying mechanisms, we used functional …

Skilled reading is important in daily life. While the understanding of the neurofunctional
organization of this uniquely human skill has advanced significantly, it does not take into …

We used fMRI to investigate neural activation in reading aloud in bilinguals differing in age
of acquisition. Three groups were compared: French–English bilinguals who acquired two …

The purpose of the present functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) investigation was
to examine how language proficiency and orthographic transparency (letter–sound mapping …

To investigate the hypothesis that in multilingual speakers different languages are
represented in distinct brain regions, 12 multilingual right-handed men performed a word …

The aim of the present study was to use functional imaging to compare cortical activations
involved in reading Hindi and English that differ markedly in terms of their orthographies by …

Studies with monolingual adults have identified successive stages occurring in different
brain regions for processing single written words. We combined magnetoencephalography …
