A comprehensive and unified account of the neural computations underlying speech production, offering a theoretical framework bridging the behavioral and the neurological literatures. In this book, Frank Guenther offers a comprehensive, unified account of the neural computations underlying speech production, with an emphasis on speech motor control rather than linguistic content. Guenther focuses on the brain mechanisms responsible for commanding the musculature of the vocal tract to produce articulations that result in an acoustic signal conveying a desired string of syllables. Guenther provides neuroanatomical and neurophysiological descriptions of the primary brain structures involved in speech production, looking particularly at the cerebral cortex and its interactions with the cerebellum and basal ganglia, using basic concepts of control theory (accompanied by nontechnical explanations) to explore the computations performed by these brain regions. Guenther offers a detailed theoretical framework to account for a broad range of both behavioral and neurological data on the production of speech. He discusses such topics as the goals of the neural controller of speech; neural mechanisms involved in producing both short and long utterances; and disorders of the speech system, including apraxia of speech and stuttering. Offering a bridge between the neurological and behavioral literatures on speech production, the book will be a valuable resource for researchers in both fields.

Discussed in this book is the association between speech and movements, especially those of the preferred hand. Both are skilled motor activities that appear to depend upon a similar neural organization that is available in the left hemisphere of the brain. The nature of this association of the cerebral control of speech and skilled manual performance is discussed in four sections: 1. Motor control and speech examines speech as a motor activity2. Language and gesture examines the correspondence between spoken language and manual gesture3. Motor performance and aphasia examines the motor impairments associated with aphasias4. Interactions of speech and manual performance examines the interactions that occur between concurrent verbal and manual activities

Abstract: Speech production relies on both feedforward and feedback control mechanisms. The DIVA model provides a quantitatively explicit description of the interaction between these controllers during speech production. According to the model, speech is initiated with the generation of feedforward motor commands. If these commands do not result in the intended speech sound and unexpected auditory feedback is detected, an auditory "error signal" is generated which is corrected by the feedback controller. The aim of this dissertation is to enhance our understanding of these processes using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). The first part of this dissertation describes efforts to enhance and constrain the interpretation of fMRI experiments designed to test predictions of the DIVA model. A mapping of the model's components to specific brain regions follows a detailed review of the brain regions involved in speech production. This mapping permits anatomically specific a priori hypotheses regarding task-related modulation of brain activation. This work also informed the development of a whole-brain parcellation system tailored for imaging studies of speech processing that, when used in conjunction with region-of-interest-based functional analysis methods, offers greater statistical power than traditional voxel-based methods. An fMRI study investigating the neural mechanisms underlying auditory feedback control of speech is described in the second part of the dissertation. Subjects spoke monosyllabic words under normal and perturbed auditory feedback conditions. Acoustic measurements demonstrated compensation for the perturbation within approximately 136 ms of onset. Neural responses during perturbed feedback were greater in posterior superior temporal cortex bilaterally, consistent with the DIVA model's hypothesis that neurons coding mismatches between expected and actual auditory signals lie in these regions. Increased frontal activation, however, was restricted to the right hemisphere. Laterality tests indicated that (i) under normal feedback conditions, articulator control is predominantly left-lateralized and (ii) feedback-based articulator control relies on greater involvement of right hemisphere ventral frontal regions, especially premotor and inferior frontal cortex. Structural equation modeling revealed increased influence of bilateral auditory cortical areas on right frontal areas during shifted speech. These results led to the addition of a right-lateralized premotor feedback control map to the DIVA model.

The motor theory is about the process by which language emerged and developed and how it functions now in human speech. The concern is with both synchronic and the diachronic aspects of language, language evolving over time and differentiating over space. In English alone we have half a million words and endless syntatic complexities, as Chomsky has demonstrated. Add the multitude of other languages that exist and have existed and it is apparent that language is a massive multiply-faceted fact-in time and space. Where did all the complexity come from? Whence the power of words seen in so many diverse forms of human interaction? How does this thread of sound tie our minds together?
