TL;DR: The gaming EEG system may prove a valid alternative to laboratory ERP systems for recording reliable late auditory ERPs over the frontal cortices, and less reliable ERPs, such as the MMN, if the reliability of such ERPs can be boosted to the same level as late auditoryERPs.

TL;DR: An adapted EPOC EEG system can be used to index children’s late auditory ERP peaks and their MMN ERP component and indicates that the ERP morphology recorded with the two systems was very similar.

TL;DR: Compared brain structure and function in SLI, unaffected siblings, and typical peers, SLI had reduced activation of the left inferior frontal cortex and the superior temporal cortex bilaterally.

TL;DR: A link between language function and left‐hemisphere lateralization exists, and cannot be explained in terms of maturational change, and it is found that children with left‐lateralized language production had higher vocabulary and nonword reading age‐adjusted standard scores than other children, regardless of the laterality of visuospatial memory.

TL;DR: Findings indicate that researchers should not rely on handedness as an indicator of cerebral lateralisation for language and imply that lateralisation of language and motor functions in the human brain show considerable independence from one another.
