Semantic integration in reading: engagement of the right hemisphere during discourse processing

St George, M., Kutas, M., Martinez, A., Sereno, M. I.·1999·Brain

Abstract

We examined the brain areas involved in discourse processing by using functional MRI in 10 individuals as they read paragraphs, with or without a title, word by word for comprehension. Functional data were collected from 20 adjacent 5 mm axial slices. Discourse processing was associated with activation in inferior frontal and temporal regions of both cerebral hemispheres in the titled and untitled conditions. Moreover, there was substantially more right hemisphere activation for untitled than for the titled paragraphs. More specifically we found: (i) greater activation in the inferior temporal sulcus of both hemispheres for untitled than titled paragraphs; (ii) greater average volume of activation in response to untitled than titled paragraphs in the middle temporal sulcus of the right hemisphere and the reverse pattern in the left middle temporal sulcus. Consistent with previous studies of individuals with right hemisphere damage, we suggest that the right middle temporal regions may be especially important for integrative processes needed to achieve global coherence during discourse processing.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
