Abstract
⺠Compared brain structure and function in SLI, unaffected siblings, and typical peers. ⺠More grey matter in SLI in the left inferior frontal cortex. ⺠Less grey matter in SLI in the right caudate nucleus and superior temporal cortex bilaterally. ⺠Functional activation was examined with an auditory covert naming task. ⺠Functionally, SLI had reduced activation of the left inferior frontal cortex and the superior temporal cortex bilaterally.
