4.3 Study F: Evidence for a segmental processing device in the human auditory dorsal stream

摘要: In the present study we investigated the functional organization of sub-lexical auditory perception with specific respect to auditory spectrotemporal processing in speech and nonspeech sounds. Participants discriminated verbal and nonverbal auditory stimuli based on ether spectral or temporal acoustic features in the context of a sparse event-related functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) study.
