In proficiently reading adults, reading a word activates the same brain regions as viewing the picture or action described by that word.
Consistent with this preexisting evidence, face word activation tended to dominate over arm word activation at inferior premotor areas (e.g., −62, 6, 0), whereas arm words activated dorsolateral precentral gyrus more strongly than face words (e.g., −54, 4, 50).
Emotion words activated a large part of the premotor cortex, with most of this activation contained in foci also activated by face words, arm words, or both.
Using the DW task we recently showed that drug words, but not neutral words, activated the midbrain in cocaine subjects but not in controls [15].
In particular, the Semantic task represents a precise control condition as the same words activated different anatomical regions in the Phonological task.
In other words, activated Tregs are capable of suppressing cells recognizing common, as well as unrelated antigens in the local microenvironment and function to direct the development of activated conventional T cells (Tconv) toward a tolerant state.
Furthermore, words activated only the right superior temporal gyrus (BA 22/42) more strongly in monolinguals than bilinguals.
Furthermore, the transposed-letter pseudo-words activated their corresponding base words to a considerable degree, as shown by a substantial false alarm rate.
There was also evidence for fine-grained latency differences, as face- and arm-words tended to activate inferior frontal cortex earlier than leg words activated the centro-dorsal leg region (Pulvermüller, Shtyrov, & Ilmoniemi, 2005; Shtyrov, Hauk, & Pulvermüller, 2004).
