Abstract

The role of corticostriatal circuits in language functions is unclear. In this review, we consider evidence from language learning, syntax, and controlled language production and comprehension tasks that implicate various corticostriatal circuits. Converging evidence from neuroimaging in healthy individuals, studies in populations with subcortical dysfunction, pharmacological studies, and brain stimulation suggests a domain-general regulatory role of corticostriatal systems in language operations. The role of corticostriatal systems in language operations identified in this review is likely to reflect a broader function of the striatum in responding to uncertainty and conflict which demands selection, sequencing, and cognitive control. We argue that this role is dynamic and varies depending on the degree and form of cognitive control required, which in turn will recruit particular corticostriatal circuits and components organised in a cognitive hierarchy.

Notes

  1. Recently, Seeley (2019) suggested that there is a further distinction between the cingulo-opercular task-control network and a separate, but anatomically close, saliency network. The cingulo-opercular network described by Dosenbach and colleagues (2007), he suggests, incorporates the dorsal aI and frontal operculum and is involved in task-set initiation and maintenance. In contrast, he suggests that the saliency network, as described by Seeley and colleagues (2007), incorporates the more ventral aI and functions to engage, maintain or switch the task-control network in response to changes in salient stimuli.
