Individual Differences in the Connectivity of Left and Right Anterior Temporal Lobes Relate to Modality and Category Effects in Semantic Categorisation
Abstract:Contemporary neuroscientific accounts suggest that ventral anterior temporal lobe (ATL) regions act as a bilateral heteromodal semantic hub. However, research also shows graded functional differences between the hemispheres relating to linguistic versus non-linguistic semantic tasks and to knowledge of objects versus people. Individual differences in connectivity from bilateral ATL and between left and right ATL might therefore give rise to differences in function within this system. We investigated whether th… Show more
