PMC Images search for linguistic ability

Fig 1Hypothesised relationship between performance on the non-linguistic test (Stroop) and the linguistic test (past tense elicitation).

Giving the correct linguistic response involves suppressing competitors by using a common cognitive faculty—inhibition.

Inhibitory Control Predicts Grammatical Ability

PLoS One. 2015;10(12):e0145030.
Figure 1

Coevolution between the language and language ability. The upper arrow represents the evolution of language ability in general. The lower arrow represents the evolution of language itself. The language ability and language are represented by AL and LG, respectively. AL_i controls the selection pressures shaping LG_i+1; conversely, LG_i controls the selection pressures shaping AL_i+1. Universal grammar (the theory proposing that the ability to learn linguistic grammar is hard-coded into the brain) and linguistic universals (general patterns that potentially exist in almost all natural languages) might have emerged as inevitable results of this coevolution.

An integrated model of gene-culture coevolution of language mediated by phenotypic plasticity

Sci Rep. 2018;8:8025.
FIGURE 1

Visual representation of the research hypothesis. The ability to process acoustic prosody in emotional communication and in interactional coordination is widespread across animal taxa. Here, I hypothesize that this ability evolved into the ability to process linguistic prosody and music in humans.

Emotional and Interactional Prosody across Animal Communication Systems: A Comparative Approach to the Emergence of Language

Front Psychol. 2016;7:1393.
Figure 4

Term equivalent FA of the cortico‐spinal tracts and the superior longitudinal fasciculus is not associated with linguistic abilities at two years. A: Visualization of an infant brain and the reconstructed cortico‐spinal tracts from left and frontal view. B: Scatter plot of PLS cortico‐spinal tract FA scores versus PLS linguistic scores. Term‐equivalent FA of left and right cortico‐spinal tracts was not associated with linguistic skills at two years (r = 0.11, FWE–corrected P‐value = 0.2785), or with cognitive scores (r = 0.12, FWE–corrected P‐value = 0.3339). C: Visualization of an infant brain and the reconstructed superior longitudinal fasciculus from left‐frontal and frontal view. D: Scatter plot of PLS superior longitudinal fasciculus FA scores versus PLS linguistic scores. Term‐equivalent FA of left and right superior longitudinal fasciculus was not associated with linguistic skills at two years (r = 0.16, FWE–corrected P‐value = 0.2697). Of further interest, superior longitudinal fasciculus FA was significantly associated with cognitive scores (r = 0.32, FWE–corrected P‐value = 0.0390).

Language ability in preterm children is associated with arcuate fasciculi microstructure at term
