Functional neuroimaging studies of syntactic processing have been interpreted as identifying the neural locations of parsing and interpretive operations. However, current behavioral studies of sentence processing indicate that many operations occur simultaneously with parsing and interpretation. In this review, we point to issues that arise in discriminating the effects of these concurrent processes from those of the parser/interpreter in neural measures and to approaches that may help resolve them.
功能神经影像学研究对句法处理的研究被解读为确定了句法分析和解释操作的神经位置。然而,目前句子处理的行为研究表明,许多操作在句法分析和解释的同时发生。在这篇综述中,我们指出了在神经测量中区分这些并发过程与分析器/解释器的影响的问题,并提出了可能有助于解决这些问题的方法。
