Abstract
⺠NIRS was sensitive to VFT-related supplementary motor area (SMA) activity. ⺠Elder SMA responses were different from young ones at the same VFT level. ⺠Anterior SMA in elder was less activated than that in younger. ⺠Anterior SMA response in elder only regresses with VFT performance. ⺠Anterior SMA in elder may be closely related to word retrieval difficulties.
