What #SelfTalk Reveals about the #Brain;
This process, rooted in #NeuroPlasticity, means the brain's-#Structure / #Function are physically #Rewired by #RepetitiveInternalDialogue.
Differences in the #NeuralUnderpinnings of:
- inner #Dialogues
Vs.
- inner #Monologues.
Functional MRI studies indicate
that #Monologic-#InnerSpeech
recruits the standard language
system that is activated during
any kind of speech (blue).
#Dialogic-#InnerSpeech, for its
part, additionally uses a num-
ber of other neural regions
(orange).
Intriguingly, the brain
areas that appear to be
involved specifically in #InternalDialogue overlap with a region
that has been linked to thinking
about #OtherMinds (red).
