| Abstract(in English) | Previous syntactic priming study on Japanese English as a foreign language (EFL) learners has shown different priming rate subject to the learners' proficiency level. The present study investigated the neuralsubstrates of syntactic priming in Japanese EFL learners, and how it would change as they became more proficient speakers. The activation difference between when sentences with syntactic structures were repeatedly produced and when no syntactic structure was produced in the previous trial was compared between subjects. As a result, the difference was larger among lower proficiency participants than the higher proficiency participants in the anterior cingulate cortex. |
