The left frontal convolution plays no special role in syntactic comprehension
Behavioral and Brain Sciences 23 (1):35-36 (2000)
| Abstract | Grodzinsky's localization claim can be questioned on empirical grounds. The Trace Deletion Hypothesis fails to account for a number of comprehension facts in Broca's aphasia and conduction aphasics show similar comprehension patterns. Frontoparietal systems are recruited during sentence comprehension only under conditions of increased processing load and/or attentional demands. | |||||||||
