Inner Speech during Silent Reading Reflects the Reader's Regional Accent (2011, background): “. This finding has also been replicated, and extended to silent reading”
Silent Reading of Direct versus Indirect Speech Activates Voice-selective Areas in the Auditory Cortex (2011, background): “The average scanning time for the whole experiment was around 53 min per participant.”
