High-resolution functional imaging of speech-induced sensory modulation
PROJECT SUMMARY / ABSTRACT The overall goal of this project is to test and refine a neurobiological systems model of speech-induced sensory modulation (SISM). Previous studies used magnetoencephalography (MEG) and electroencephalography (EEG) to reveal that auditory cortical responses evoked when speaking are reduced compared to passive listening, a phenomenon known as speaking-induced suppression (SIS). This effect has been proposed to reflect the action of learned forward models that predict sensory consequences of speech movements. While EEG/MEG studies of SIS have provided important insights, these methods have limited anatomical precision. For this reason, the auditory regions…
