Action-selective neurons have been found in different cortical regions, including the superior temporal sulcus, parietal and premotor cortex. Source: Internet
In single-word-recognition tasks, people who do not stutter showed cortical activation first in occipital areas, then in left inferior-frontal regions such as Broca’s area, and finally, in motor and premotor cortices. Source: Internet
The people who stutter also first had cortical activation in the occipital areas but the left inferior-frontal regions were activated only after the motor and premotor cortices were activated. Source: Internet
However, whether spasms involve activation of premotor spinal excitatory neuronal circuits is unknown. Source: Internet
