To test these hypotheses, the present magnetoencephalography (MEG) experiment had participants judge whether visually presented words relate to the senses while we recorded brain responses to abstract and concrete semantic components obtained from 65 independently rated semantic features. Results evidenced early involvement of anterior-temporal and inferior-frontal brain areas in both abstract and concrete semantic information encoding. At later stages, occipital and occipito-temporal regions showed greater responses to concrete compared to abstract features.

We investigated the interindividual variability and consistency of language activation in 12 healthy participants using three tasks—verb generation, responsive naming, and sentence comprehension—for future presurgical use. Responsive naming produced the most consistent left-lateralised activation across participants in frontal and temporal regions that postsurgical voxel-based lesion-symptom mapping studies suggest are most critical for language outcomes.

Twelve PWA and nineteen healthy controls completed the task, and recall and recognition tests of learning ability. Most PWA showed comparable learning outcomes to those of the healthy controls. Learning assessed via expressive recall was more clearly evidenced with phonological cues. Better single word processing abilities and phonological short-term memory and higher integrity of the left inferior frontal gyrus were related to better learning performance.
