Magnetic resonance perfusion imaging in the study of language.

abstract：:Amplitude changes in the auditory event related response reflect differences in linguistic content and the level of processing of spoken sentences. Thus, the neurophysiology of the cognitive processes underlying speech perception can be evaluated by noninvasive techniques. Semantically correct, semantically incorrect,...

abstract：:A well-known feature of Broca's aphasia is the problem of handling "small words." It has been claimed that patients show these problems in both language production and language perception. The traditional dichotomy of "function" words and "content" words is probably not a good description of the classes of words that ...
