Editor's Notes
Hi,\nDominic Portain, Burkhard Maess (MEG group)\nplanning to do MEG study\nDirectionality of auditory pathways\ncausality in signals from higher-order syntax\n
Anatomical and functional background\nHow I arrived at my particular task paradigm\nWhat I’m going to do with the MEG data\nWhen exactly I need the scanner\nwhat exactly I’m going to measure\nand I’ll be open for discussion afterwards\n
According to Friederici, 2011\nlanguage processing: two major pathways\nventral path: simple syntax and semantics\nAlready \ndorsal: phonemics and complex syntax\narea of interest: dorsal path II, connecting pSTG and BA44\n
We also know, slow development of D2:\nnot fully analyzed yet\nno trace in newborns, fully developed in adults\nslow growth, round about between 7 and 15 years\n-> interesting to study children at the age of 10\npossibility to compare with adults\n
We need:\n- a task suitable for children and adults\n- something that requires the dorsal pathway II\n- decision: subject-object paradigm\n“Where is the monkey, that is pulled by the tiger?”\n- Cooke, Stromswold, and inhouse: Michael Skeide\n- chosen because of fMRI activation\n
In the following, I give you a clear example how this paradigm works in our experiment:\n- dual picture\n- spoken sentence: “Where is the \n- response left/right\n- about 5 seconds per trial\n- tutorial for initial learning\n- feedback: correct response, accuracy, speed\n- pilot study: possibility for cheating by case selection\n- did not have to listen until the end of the sentence to fulfill the task\n- cheating-proof sentence\n
MEG data is localized by using a FEM head model\nsource space data \n
Pilot study is run right now\nplan to test during autumn vacation\n
