“…For instance, Adorni and Proverbio (2012) applied LORETA source reconstruction to an ERP experiment involving a lexical decision task and found evidence of increased activation of the left medial frontal gyrus and the left temporal cortex, as well as decreased activation of extrastriate visual areas, with abstract relative to concrete words (see Lehmann, Pascual-Marqui, Strik, & Koenig, 2010, for similar findings using different tasks). In another ERP study, distinct concreteness effects were elicited in the left and right hemispheres (Huang, Lee, & Federmeier, 2010). A number of neuroimaging studies have shown that superior regions of the left temporal lobe (Binder, Westbury, McKiernan, Possing, & Medler, 2005;Giesbrecht, Gamblin, & Swaab, 2004;Mellet, Tzourio, Denis, & Mazoyer, 1998;Noppeney & Price, 2004;Sabsevitz, Medler, Seidenberg, & Binder, 2005) and inferior regions of the left prefrontal cortex Giesbrecht et al, 2004;Goldberg, Perfetti, & Schneider, 2006;Noppeney & Price, 2004;Sabsevitz et al, 2005) are activated to a greater degree by tasks involving abstract concepts.…”
