The present experiment designed to localize the neural substrates that process music-syntactic incongruities, using magnetoencephalography (MEG), finds that these areas are also responsible for an analysis of incoming harmonic sequences, indicating that these regions process syntactic information that is less language-specific than previously believed.

1 July 2000

This finding indicates that syntactic and semantic processes are autonomous during an early processing stage, whereas these information types interact during a later processing phase.

Music, language and meaning: brain signatures of semantic processing

S. Koelsch, E. Kasper, D. Sammler, K. Schulze, T. Gunter, A. Friederici

The results indicate that both music and language can prime the meaning of a word, and that music can, as language, determine physiological indices of semantic processing.

A reanalysis interpretation of the P600 could explain why the extent of the reanalysis differed with syntactic complexity and probability of ungrammaticality.

Bach Speaks: A Cortical “Language-Network” Serves the Processing of Music

The present fMRI-data reveal that the human brain employs this neuronal network also for the processing of musical information, suggesting that the cortical network known to support language processing is less domain-specific than previously believed.

The finding that online syntacticprocessing is related to WM span and to additional WM load does not support the theory that there is a WM capacity specific for syntactic processing.

Isn't It Ironic? An Electrophysiological Exploration of Figurative Language Processing

Stefanie Regel, T. Gunter, A. Friederici
Psychology
Journal of Cognitive Neuroscience
1 February 2011

During the comprehension of irony, no semantic integration difficulty arises, but late inferential processes appear to be necessary for understanding ironic meanings (presence of P600), which calls for a revision of current models of figurative language processing.
