“…Its counterpart, the left middle/superior temporal gyrus, is activated during reading [12,17,24]. The fact that R stimuli increase the right but not the left temporal gyrus activity supports neuropsychological data mentioned in the Introduction reporting that RH damage specifically impairs the comprehension of metaphoric language [4,5,19,23]. Activation of the right middle temporal gyrus in response to metaphoric material has also been reported in PET studies on healthy subjects [3], suggesting that this area plays an important role in metaphor comprehension.…”
