Abstract
⺠This fMRI study examined the processing action words and mental state words. ⺠This language task showed activation in core language areas, LIFG and LSTG. ⺠Comprehending action words elicited strong motor area response in participants. ⺠Motor cortex was also found to be connected strongly to other areas. ⺠Mental state words showed activation mainly in OFC and Precuneus.
