As a term of comparison, language is unmalleable.
"In comparison, languages such as Thai or Mandarin can sound harsh because they are using tonal distinctions.
Language abilities were evaluated with BILO, which is calibrated in order to allow comparisons in language ability across age groups.
So it's all about creating these comparisons in language.
The pairwise comparisons within language showed an early vmPFC effect both in ASL (p = 0.013, 119 191 ms) and English (p = 0.038, 100 162 ms) while the later vmPFC effect only reached significance in English (p = 0.001, 313 497 ms; ASL p = 0.11, 320 500; Fig. 3A).
Evidence from direct comparisons between language and music on cognitive abilities indicate that there are domain-specific effects that go beyond the shared processing between domains.
MS carried out the FST comparisons and language corrections and gave substantial advice for the improvement of the manuscript.
Many studies have conducted within subject comparisons of language lateralization assessed with Wada versus fMRI [Binder et al., 1996; Desmond et al., 1995].
These motives and strategies have been examined in various contexts, including cross-cultural comparisons, the language medium of instruction, teaching and learning environments, professional and staff development, and factor structure and the dimensionality of subscales [ 6- 8].
Equally, the comparisons of language profiles of individual children with DS who did not show measurable Ta and Tb peaks on both temporal electrodes, or children with DS who showed a pattern of Ta and Tb lateralisation similar to typically developing children, did not point to associations between Ta and Tb characteristics and language abilities.
