Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI)studies of the brains of young children with dyslexia indicate that they show significantly less activation in a number of left hemisphere sites when reading than do non-impaired children.These areas include which of the following?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) studies have shown that children with dyslexia exhibit significantly less activation in several areas of the left hemisphere when engaged in reading tasks. These areas include the inferior frontal gyri, which are involved in the processing of language; the superior temporal gyri, which play a role in the processing of sounds and language; and the middle-temporal-middle occipital gyri, which are involved in the integration of visual and language information. Therefore, all the options listed are correct.
