Evidence suggests that lateral frontal cortex is hierarchically organized such that rostral frontal regions support more abstract representations than caudal regions. A recent fMRI study of language processing proposes that striatum may exhibit an analogous organization. We consider this hypothetical correspondence at both the cognitive and anatomical levels.
有证据表明，外侧额叶皮层是分层组织的，即额前区域比额后区域支持更抽象的表示。最近一项关于语言处理的 fMRI 研究提出，纹状体可能表现出类似的组织。我们在认知和解剖学两个层面上考虑这种假设的对应关系。
