An Initial Neurobiological Reading Model (Pugh et al. 2000) • TEMPOROPARIETAL • (DORSAL) • Areas: • supramarginal, angular, superior temporal (Wernicke’s) gyri • Hypothesized Function: • Mapping of orthographic to phonological and semantic representations • ANTERIOR • Areas: • inferior frontal gyrus (including Broca’s area) • One Hypothesized Function: • Articulatory recoding OCCIPITOTEMPORAL (VENTRAL) Areas: occipitotemporal juncture, middle and inferior temporal gyri Hypothesized Function: Linguistically structured memory- based fast word identification system (posterior aspect = “word-form” area)
