Fig. 2.

Activation for the speechreading condition as a function of hearing status. The region indicated was more active for deaf than hearing participants, when performance on the TAS (z-score) was entered as a covariate (voxel-wise p-value = 0.05, cluster-wise p-value = 0.01). No regions were more active for hearing than deaf participants. No right hemisphere regions were significantly different across the groups. Five sequential axial sections, showing activation in superior temporal regions, including the planum temporale (PT) and Heschl's gyrus (HG) are also displayed.
