Brain basis of cognitive resilience: Prefrontal cortex predicts better reading comprehension in relation to decoding. by Smadar Z Patael, Emily A Farris, Jessica M Black, Roeland Hancock, John D E Gabrieli, Laurie E Cutting, Fumiko Hoeft

“…<h4>Methods</h4>We investigated the neural basis underlying reading discrepancy, defined as the difference between reading comprehension and decoding skills, in a three-part study: 1) The neuroanatomical basis of reading discrepancy in a cross-sectional sample of school-age children with a wide range of reading abilities (Experiment-1; n = 55); 2) Whether a discrepancy-related neural signature is present in beginning readers and predictive of future discrepancy (Experiment-2; n = 43); and 3) Whether discrepancy-related regions are part of a domain-general or a language specialized network, utilizing the 1000 Functional Connectome data and large-scale reverse inference from Neurosynth.org (Experiment-3).…”
