| Wengbin Pang, Zhichao Xia, Linjun Zhang, Hua Shu, Yang Zhang, Yumei Zhan. Stimulus-responsive and task-dependent activations in occipital regions during pitch perception by early blind listeners. Human brain mapping. vol 45. issue 2. 2024-02-10. PMID:38339902. |
although it has been established that cross-modal activations occur in the occipital cortex during auditory processing among congenitally and early blind listeners, it remains uncertain whether these activations in various occipital regions reflect sensory analysis of specific sound properties, non-perceptual cognitive operations associated with active tasks, or the interplay between sensory analysis and cognitive operations. |

this is possibly the result of the more pronounced involvement of the right parietal cortex during spatial tasks in blind individuals compared to the sighted, as well as of the additional recruitment of the right occipital cortex, which would reflect the cross-modal plastic phenomena that largely characterize the blind brain. |
