熟练的，非英语母语的神经外科候选人进行英语语言功能评估。为了了解是否有必要评估母语功能，我们使用功能性磁共振成像（fMRI）检查了母语对早期熟练双语者双语语言网络的影响。我们比较了血氧水平依赖（BOLD）的语言任务的匹配组的母语为英语的单语者（MLE），双语母语为英语的人（BLE1），双语非母语英语的人（BLE2）。随机效应分析显示，颞顶叶区域的组的显著主效应与颞叶手术程序的规划高度相关。为了探索这三组之间的差异，我们检查了每组每个主效应区域的平均时间进程。我们发现单语者和两个双语组之间存在显着差异。我们解释我们的研究结果作为早期双语者和单语者的语言网络之间的差异的证据。
Proficient, nonnative English-speaking neurosurgery candidates are assessed for language function in English. In order to understand whether it is necessary to also assess native-language function, we examined the influence of native language on the bilingual language network of early, proficient bilinguals using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). We compared the blood-oxygen-level-dependent (BOLD) response to a language task in well-matched groups of monolingual native English speakers (MLEs), bilingual native English speakers (BLE1s), and bilingual nonnative English speakers (BLE2s). Random effects analysis revealed a significant main effect of group in temporal–parietal regions highly germane to the planning of temporal lobe surgical procedures. To explore how the three groups differed, we examined the average time course in each area of main effect for each group. We found significant differences between the monolinguals and the two bilingual groups. We interpret our results as evidence for a difference between the language network of early bilinguals and that of monolinguals.
