About this document
Brain Mechanisms in Speech Categorization by Ana Ventura is a document available to read on EtoBox.
1) The document discusses a study that used fMRI and a passive habituation trial design to investigate brain mechanisms involved in preattentive categorization of speech sounds. 2) The study found greater activation for between-category speech sound changes (e.g. across a phonetic boundary) compared to within-category changes in left superior sulcus, middle temporal gyrus, and inferior parietal cortex. 3) In contrast, only a subcortical region responded specifically to within-category speech sound changes
