Mental concerts: musical imagery and auditory cortex. (2005, background): “Simpler tasks, such exalted level, composers such as Beethoven or Smet- as imagining the continuation of a known musical seana, who became deaf later in their lives, nonetheless lection (Kraemer et al., 2005) can also be useful.”
Mental imagery of speech: linking motor and perceptual systems through internal simulation and estimation (2012, background): “…perceptual processes, such as in visual (e.g., Kosslyn et al., 1999; O’Craven and Kanwisher, 2000), auditory (e.g., Zatorre et al., 1996; Kraemer et al., 2005), somatosensory (e.g., Yoo et al., 2003; Zhang et al., 2004), and olfactory domains (e.g., Bensafi et al., 2003; Djordjevic et…”
A review and synthesis of the first 20 years of PET and fMRI studies of heard speech, spoken language and reading (2012, background): “…(Jancke and Shah, 2004; Pekkola et al., 2006), in the silence that followed familiar music even when there was no instruction to remember the music (Kraemer et al., 2005), when passively viewing finger tapping on the piano following keyboard training (Hasegawa et al., 2004), when producing…”
Bookworms versus nerds: Exposure to fiction versus non-fiction, divergent associations with social ability, and the simulation of fictional social worlds (2006, background): “appears to engage neural substrates similar to those involved with actually perceiving that experience; this has been found to be the case with respect to perceiving objects (Kosslyn, Thompson, Kim, & Alpert, 1995; O’Craven & Kanwisher, 2000; cf. Mellet et al., 1996), motion (Goebel, Khorram-Sefat, ”
Laminar structure of spontaneous and sensory-evoked population activity in auditory cortex (2009, unknown): “Patterned spontaneous activity is believed to be important for brain functions such as memory consolidation, behavioral variability, and mental imagery (Fox and Raichle, 2007; Hoffman et al., 2007; Kraemer et al., 2005), as well as pathological phenomena such as auditory hallucinations (Dierks et al”
Auditory imagery: empirical findings. (2010, background): “…with activation of secondary auditory cortex and relative lack of activation of primary auditory cortex in Yoo et al. (2001) and with greater activation of auditory association areas during silent gaps embedded in familiar music (and in which auditory imagery was reported) in Kraemer et al. (2005).”
