“…When this region is electrically stimulated, movements of the vocal chords are triggered in human and non-human primates [Jurgens, 2002;Penfield and Rasmussen, 1952]. Furthermore, if it is damaged bilaterally in humans, singing and speaking is no longer possible [Groswasser et al, 1988]. In squirrel monkeys, it has been shown to be a part of the motorcortical pathway, which controls the patterning of learned vocal utterances via the reticular formation [Jurgens, 2009].…”

“…Bilateral lesion of the region of orofacial representation in primary motor and premotor cortex, for example, does not significantly alter the acoustic structure of calls or the rate of calling in squirrel monkeys Kirzinger and Jürgens, 1982] or macaques [Myers, 1969;Sutton et al, 1974;Aitken, 1981]. In contrast, the primary motor cortex is activated during speech and singing in humans [Salmelin and Sams, 2002] and bilateral destruction of the primary motor cortex in humans causes pseudobulbar palsy, a syndrome characterized by complete loss of voluntary control of linguistic phonation, with sparing of emotional utterances such as groaning, crying, and laughing [Alajouanine and Thurel, 1933;Foerster, 1936;Mariani et al, 1980;Groswasser et al, 1988;Mao et al, 1989]. Thus, interspecific differences in the execution of voluntary orofacial movements, such as non-emotional facial expressions and speech in humans, may be subserved by phylogenetic diversification in the structure and connections of the primary motor cortex.…”

“…Additionally, the results of lesioning studies in the context of animal vocalizations have been criticized (Ghazanfar and Rendall, 2008). For instance, one major finding of this research in a comparative framework has been that introducing lesions or electrically stimulating primate cortical areas thought to be involved in vocalization has had little effect (Aitken, 1981;Jürgens et al, 1982), as compared with humans who are heavily impaired when Broca or Wernicke's areas are damaged (Groswasser et al, 1988;Mariani et al, 1980). However, these results may benefit from a newer and more informed appraisal based on current knowledge of the primate vocal system (Ghazanfar and Rendall, 2008).…”

“…Some of them undoubtedly are (Tomasello, 2008), but so are some equally uncontrollable human vocalizations such as screaming, groaning, crying, or laughing (Groswasser et al, 1988;Mariani et al, 1980). However, primates may also have more control over intentional calls (calls that are produced with the aim of fulfilling a goal) or referential calls (calls that indicate something to someone), which both fulfill a complementary communicative role to the conveying of emotions (Crockford et al, 2012;Liebal et al, 2014;Sievers and Gruber, 2016); finally some calls may have a learnt component (e.g.…”
