Beyond the Visual Word Form Area–a cognitive characterization of the left ventral occipitotemporal cortex
The left ventral occipitotemporal cortex has been traditionally viewed as a pathway for visual
object recognition including written letters and words. Its crucial role in reading was …

The development of orthography and phonology coupling in the ventral occipito-temporal cortex and its relation to reading.
The left ventral occipito-temporal (lvOT) cortex is considered to house the brain's
representation of orthography (ie, the spelling patterns of words). Because letter-sound …

[HTML][HTML] Unraveling individual differences in learning potential: A dynamic framework for the case of reading development
Children show an enormous capacity to learn during development, but with large individual
differences in the time course and trajectory of learning and the achieved skill level. Recent …

The depth of semantic processing modulates cross‐language pattern similarity in Chinese–English bilinguals
Previous studies have investigated factors related to the degree of cross‐language overlap
