TL;DR: Reading metaphors in contrast to literal sentences revealed signal changes in the left lateral inferior frontal, inferior temporal and posterior middle/inferior temporal gyri, which may reflect semantic inferencing processes during the understanding of a metaphor.

TL;DR: It is concluded that schizotypy is a construct with apparent phenomenological overlap with schizophrenia and stable interindividual differences that covary with performance on a wide range of perceptual, cognitive, and motor tasks known to be impaired in schizophrenia.

TL;DR: These meta-analyses indicate that a predominantly left lateralised network, including the left and right inferior frontal gyrus; the left, middle, and superior temporal gyrus%; and medial prefrontal, superior frontal, cerebellar, parahippocampal, precentral, and inferior parietal regions, is important for non-literal expressions.

TL;DR: Results point to a dysfunctional ventrolateral prefrontal-parietal network during working memory in patients, suggesting impairments in basic functions such as retrieval, storage and maintenance.

TL;DR: Processing of metaphoric sentences using event-related functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) found the lowest degree of laterality was found in the temporal pole, suggesting other factors than metaphoricity per se might trigger right hemisphere recruitment.
