The primate basal ganglia are fundamental to Ackermann et al.'s proposal. However, primates and rodents are models for human cognitive functions involving basal ganglia circuits, and links between striatal function and vocal communication come from songbirds. We suggest that the proposal is better integrated in cognitive and/or motor theories on spoken language origins and with more analogous nonhuman animal models.
灵长类动物的基底神经节是阿克曼等人提议的基础。然而,灵长类动物和啮齿动物是涉及基底神经节回路的人类认知功能的模型,而纹状体功能与发声交流之间的联系来自鸣禽。我们认为,该提议在关于口语起源的认知和/或运动理论以及更多类似的非人类动物模型中能得到更好的整合。
