Brief Summary

Speech develops through a co-structuring of auditory and motor representations, especially in the first years of life during language acquisition. In the present study, we will test by means of functional magnetic resonance imaging whether vowel perception and production might depend on a coordination of auditory and motor, articulatory, cortical maps. The outcome of this study will lead to a better understanding of whether both vowel perception and production are processed in the human brain and will provide important insight into brain-language relationships. Besides new theoretical perspectives on speech perception and production, this project might raise important questions concerning patients with speech disorders by identifying which aspects of speech perception and production are functionally linked.
