| Research Abstract |
When a speaker receives auditory feedback with a 200-ms delay, he/she tends to speak less fluently. This phenomenon is called a delayed auditory feedback(DAF) effect. Susceptibility to the effect, however, varies among individuals. We investigated brain activity during a reading task under DAF and normal auditory feedback(NAF) conditions using functional magnetic resonance imaging(fMRI) on subjects with different levels of susceptibility. By searching for the brain area correlated with DAF susceptibility, we found that the left precentral gyrus(BA6), medial frontal gyrus(BA6), left inferior frontal gyrus(BA45), and left anterior insula were activated in a way negatively correlated with the degree of DAF effect. These results suggest that during speech DAF-insusceptible subjects show improved motor planning and control for speech production under the DAF condition, thus achieving fluent speech compared to DAF-susceptible subjects.
