| Research Abstract |
Using fMRI, we investigated the effects of scrambling on cortical activation by directly comparing the brain regions involved in the processing of Japanese transitive sentences with canonical and scrambled word order. The result showed more activation at the L.IFG and the L.DPFC during the comprehension of scrambled sentences than that of canonical sentences.
