It turned out that every word reacts a certain area of the brain.
American scientists from the University of California at Berkeley have developed a detailed interactive map of the Brain, demonstrate how the human brain sistematizirovat language.
In this study, the authors used magnetic resonance imaging.
Scientists measured the activity of brain areas for multiple subjects, and they at that time listened to a two hour broadcast.
According to the study, in the cortex there are areas that actively respond to groups of related meaning.
For example, one area will recognize concepts such as “arm”, “head”, “belly” and the other “husband”, “wife”, “children”. Separate areas are responsible for the recognition of abstract concepts, verbs, and a number of other thematic groups.
According to scientists, such a semantic map activity in the brain will allow in the future to develop new therapies associated with loss of speech diseases.
