PLACEMENT OF SIGN LANGUAGE’S IN THE BRAIN

Abstract

Most of the data about the neurological bases of language is based on studies oforal language. Studies of sign languages can clarify the question of whether language has a basic configuration or is it specific to languages that are spoken andheard. This study provides an overview of studies in literature of the functioning oflanguage and communication process in deaf and healthy people

İŞARET DİLİNİN BEYİNDE KONUMLANIŞI

Öz

Dilin nörolojik temelleri hakkındaki verilerin çoğu konuşma dili çalışmalarınadayanmaktadır. İşaret dili çalışmaları, dilin beyinde temel bir yapılanışının olupolmadığı ya da dil sisteminin konuşulan ve işitilen dillere özgü olup olmadığısorusuna açıklık getirmektedir. Bu çalışma, işitme engelli ve sağlıklı insanlardakidil ve iletişim sürecinin işleyişine ilişkin alanyazındaki çalışmalara genel bir bakışaçısı sunmaktadır

Anahtar Kelimeler

• İşaret Dili
• Beyindeki Dil Alanları
• Dil Sistemi
