Linguistic inputs must be syntactically parsable to fully engage the language network

The paper tests whether syntactic parsing is necessary for language comprehension by analyzing brain responses to syntactically ill-formed but semantically plausible and grammatically correct but semantically implausible sentences.

Robust effects of working memory demand during naturalistic language comprehension in language-selective cortex

This study uses fMRI to show that working memory demand during naturalistic language comprehension affects language-selective brain regions but not multiple-demand regions, supporting domain-specific WM resources for language.

An ERP index of real-time error correction within a noisy-channel framework of human communication

The paper investigates real-time error correction in language processing using ERP components, finding that noise-related semantic violations elicit reduced N400 and increased P600 effects.

Incremental language comprehension difficulty predicts activity in the language network but not the multiple demand network

The paper examines the relationship between comprehension difficulty and neural activity in the multiple demand and core language networks during story listening, finding no link in the multiple demand network but a link in the core language network.
