Processing of Small Clauses is associated with reduced activation in the left IFG (BA 44) and the right putamen. (A) Activation maps are rendered on a brain template depicting brain regions in which activation for Small Clauses was lower compared to activation for Full Sentences and for Two-word Sentences. These brain regions include regions in the Inferior Frontal Gyrus (x = –48, y = 8, and z = 16) and the Putamen (x = 26, y = 2, and z = –2). Conjunction analysis was made using contrast maps of Small Clauses compared to Full Sentences, and Small Clauses compared to Two-word Sentences, each threshold at p < 0.005 (conjunctive p < 0.000025). Clusters identified by the conjunction composed of at least 9 contiguous voxels are reported. (B) Mean parameter estimates per condition extracted from the functionally defined regions of interest identified in the conjunction analysis shown in A. SC, Small Clauses; FullS, Full Sentences; 2WordS, Two-word Sentences.
