Engagement of the speech motor system in challenging speech perception: Activation likelihood estimation meta-analyses.

ABSTRACT: The relationship between speech production and perception is a topic of ongoing debate. Some argue that there is little interaction between the two, while others claim they share representations and processes. One perspective suggests increased recruitment of the speech motor system in demanding listening situations to facilitate perception. However, uncertainties persist regarding the specific regions involved and the listening conditions influencing its engagement. This study used activation likelihood estimation in coordinate-based meta-analyses to investigate the neural overlap between speech production and three speech perception conditions: speech-in-noise, spectrally degraded speech and linguistically complex speech. Neural overlap was observed in the left frontal, insular and tempo
