Journal Article
Sex differences in the functional organization of the brain for language
Bennett A. Shaywitz,Sally E. Shaywitz,Kenneth R. Pugh,Robert Todd Constable,Pawel Skudlarski,Robert K. Fulbright,Richard A. Bronen,Jack M. Fletcher,D.P. Shankweiler,Leonard Katz,John C. Gore +10 more
TL;DR: For instance, this paper found that brain activation in males is lateralized to the left inferior frontal gyrus regions; in females the pattern of activation is very different, engaging more diffuse neural systems that involve both the left and right inferior frontal cortex.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of Estrogen on Brain Activation Patterns in Postmenopausal Women During Working Memory Tasks
Sally E. Shaywitz,Bennett A. Shaywitz,Kenneth R. Pugh,Robert K. Fulbright,P Skudlarski,W.E. Mencl,Robert Todd Constable,Frederick Naftolin,Steven F. Palter,Karen E. Marchione,Leonard Katz,D.P. Shankweiler,Jack M. Fletcher,Cheryl Lacadie,Martin Keltz,John C. Gore +15 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that estrogen affects brain organization for memory in postmenopausal women in specific brain regions during the performance of the sorts of memory function that are called upon frequently during any given day.
Journal ArticleDOI
Predicting reading performance from neuroimaging profiles: The cerebral basis of phonological effects in printed word identification.
Kenneth R. Pugh,Bennett A. Shaywitz,Sally E. Shaywitz,D.P. Shankweiler,Leonard Katz,Jack M. Fletcher,P Skudlarski,Robert K. Fulbright,Robert Todd Constable,Richard A. Bronen,Cheryl Lacadie,John C. Gore +11 more
TL;DR: This paper found that individual differences in the magnitude of phonological effects in word recognition, as indicated by spelling-to-sound regularity effects on lexical decision latencies and by sensitivity to stimulus length effects, were strongly related to differences in hemispheric lateralization in two cortical regions.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Functional Organization of Brain for Reading and Reading Disability (Dyslexia
Bennett A. Shaywitz,Sally E. Shaywitz,Kenneth R. Pugh,P Skudlarski,Robert K. Fulbright,R. Todd Constable,Jack M. Fletcher,Alvin M. Liberman,D.P. Shankweiler,Leonard Katz,Richard A. Bronen,Karen E. Marchione,Cheryl Lacadie,John C. Gore +13 more
TL;DR: These data suggest that the activation of the IFG region during the performance of a rhyming task may provide a neural "signature" for phonological processing, the core cognitive component in reading and reading disability.
