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.

Sex differences in the functional organization of the brain for language
Bennett A. Shaywitz,Sally E. Shaywltz,Kenneth R. Pugh,Kenneth R. Pugh,R. Todd Constable,Pawel Skudlarski,Robert K. Fulbright,Richard A. Bronen,Jack M. Fletcher,Donald Shankweiler,Leonard Katz,John C. Gore +11 more
TL;DR: The data provide clear evidence for a sex difference in the functional organization of the brain for language and indicate that these variations exist at the level of phonological processing.
Journal ArticleDOI
Disruption of posterior brain systems for reading in children with developmental dyslexia.
Bennett A. Shaywitz,Sally E. Shaywitz,Kenneth R. Pugh,Kenneth R. Pugh,W. Einar Mencl,W. Einar Mencl,Robert K. Fulbright,Pawel Skudlarski,R. Todd Constable,Karen E. Marchione,Jack M. Fletcher,G. Reid Lyon,John C. Gore,John C. Gore +13 more
TL;DR: Brain activation patterns in dyslexic and nonimpaired children during pseudoword and real-word reading tasks that required phonologic analysis provided neurobiological evidence of an underlying disruption in the neural systems for reading in children with dyslexia.
Journal ArticleDOI
Functional disruption in the organization of the brain for reading in dyslexia
Sally E. Shaywitz,Bennett A. Shaywitz,Kenneth R. Pugh,Robert K. Fulbright,Robert Todd Constable,W.E. Mencl,Donald Shankweiler,Alvin M. Liberman,P Skudlarski,Jack M. Fletcher,Leonard Katz,Karen E. Marchione,Cheryl Lacadie,C Gatenby,John C. Gore +14 more
TL;DR: Using functional magnetic resonance imaging to compare brain activation patterns in dyslexic and nonimpaired subjects as they performed tasks that made progressively greater demands on phonologic analysis supports a conclusion that the impairment in Dyslexia is phonologic in nature.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cerebral organization of component processes in reading

TL;DR: The cerebral organization of word identification processes in reading was examined using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and a strategy of multiple subtractions was employed in order to validate relationships between structure and function.
