Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Brain mechanisms of irony comprehension and politeness during communicative utterance production were examined using MEG and fMRI. Results showed that oscillatory power of alpha band (8-13Hz) was decreased in the medial prefrontal cortex and the right anterior temporal lobe during irony production, and the amygdala and the orbitofrontal cortex play a role in the consideration of politeness during communicative utterance production. These regions were known to be involved in context, theory of mind, and affective processing. Questionnaire studies and behavioral study also support the notion that irony production includes social and affective processing.
