The Impact of Language on Brain Perception and Decision-Making
Language influences how we perceive and think about the world. Recent MRI studies show that brain areas involved in language activate during perceptual decisions, suggesting that the words we use shape our visual perception and cognitive processes.
How Language Shapes Perception and Brain Activation in Decision-Making
Everything is energy. Recent research shows that language influences perceptual decision-making by activating specific brain areas during naming and visual tasks. This supports the idea that words can shape how we perceive and interpret the world.

第2言語をできるだけ小さい頃から学んだほうが良い科学的理由。neural commitmentの原理がわかれば、人間特有の汎用的なパターン認識の原理がわかってくる? Effects of language experience: neural commitment to language-specific auditory patterns https://t.co/zppi7k2eOo

Abstract Synopsis
- Language experience shapes how we perceive speech at a neural level, with different brain activity patterns observed in American and Japanese listeners when processing sounds such as "ra" and "la."
- Japanese listeners showed less sensitivity to the "rl" sound contrast and used more brain resources over a longer time when processing non-native speech sounds, indicating difficulty in discriminating unfamiliar phonemes.
- Early exposure to a language creates specific neural commitments that can hinder the ability to efficiently process foreign sounds, as evidenced by increased brain activity and prolonged processing in relevant brain regions.
