Schematic representation of the experimental design. Functional activations associated with the processing of stimuli from 5 experimental conditions (SC, Small Clauses; FullS, Full Sentences; 2WordS, Two-word Sentences; Simple Comp, Simple Compounds; Complex Comp, Complex Compounds) were tested using a block design. In each block 8 unique stimuli were presented and participants were instructed to read the text and indicate with a button press any stimuli repetition (in this example, stimuli number 5 denoted by R). Each block lasted 15.75 s and was followed by a 10 s inter-block interval. Three blocks were presented per each of the experimental conditions for a total of 24 stimuli per condition. The total run time was 6 min 26 s. ITI, interval between stimulus presentations within a block; Block and Stimuli within a block are represented by vertical box.
