In a withinโsubjects design, eventโrelated potentials were compared for two types of sentenceโfinal syntactic errors: Incorrect verb inflection and incorrect word category (phrase structure). In a grammatical judgment task, these errors triggered robust N400 and P600 components. To assess the degree

## Abstract Most previous neuroimaging studies of sentence processing have associated Broca's area with syntactic processing; however, the exact nature of the processes subserved by this brain region is yet not well understood. Although some authors suggest that Brodmann area (BA) 44 of the left in
## Abstract An eventโrelated fMRI study was conducted to investigate the effect of two different sentence presentation paradigmsโrapid serial visual presentation (RSVP) and whole sentence presentationโon syntactic processing. During scanning, sentences were presented using one of the two presentati
