Maps in Talairach space show activations associated with the English and Mandarin word completion tasks compared with fixation. Data from representative early (A) and late (B) bilingual subjects are shown. The subject’s left hemisphere is on the right of each image. The top two panels in each sequence show activations above a Z-score threshold of 5 in red and those above 10 in yellow. In the bottom panel, activations above a Z-score threshold of 5 areblue for English and yellow for Mandarin. Where there is overlap of activations, the mapped area is represented in green. The numbers below the images represent distance from the anterior commissural plane in the superior–inferior direction.
