Note. In-house analysis began by identifying published reviews of the neural basis of reading indexed within either Pubmed (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/) or PsychINFO (http://search.proquest.com/) databases, filtering the results to papers that reported coordinates in standard stereotactic space (MNI or Talairach) from a quantitative meta-analysis examining functional MRI or PET studies of reading-related tasks (e.g., lexical decision, rhyme judgment). The search was further narrowed to eight papers, chosen because they report meta-analytic results from one of three contrasts theoretically associated with phonological processing (Phon) versus semantic processing (Sem) weighting within the reading network: (1) item-level – nonword (Phon) vs. word (Sem) single-word reading in adults (n = 4), (2) stage-level – children (Phon) vs. adults (Sem) reading (n = 1), and (3) ability-level – control (Phon) vs. dyslexic (Sem) reading (n = 3).
