Abstract:When speech intelligibility is reduced, listeners exploit constraints posed by semantic context to facilitate comprehension. The left angular gyrus (AG) has been argued to drive this semantic predictability gain. Taking a network perspective, we ask how the connectivity within languagespecific and domain-general networks flexibly adapts to the predictability and intelligibility of speech. Participants repeated sentences, which varied in semantic predictability of the final word and in acoustic intelligibility.… Show more
