Duplicated Heschl’s gyrus associations with phonological decoding
Mark A. Eckert
Abstract:The reason(s) for why a complete duplication of the left hemisphere Heschl’s gyrus (HG) has been observed in people with reading disability are unclear. This study was designed to replicate and advance understanding of the HG and phonological decoding association, as well as test competing hypotheses that this HG duplication association is specifically localized to the HG or could be due to co-occurring atypical development of other brain regions that support reading and language development. Participants were… Show more
