Neural representations of self-perception of voice: An intracortical evoked potential analysis based on an adolescent with right temporal lobe epilepsy

The neural bases for language perception and our own ‘voice have been studied elsewhere using Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation, functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Direct Cortical Stimulation. The adaptive importance of recognizing own ‘voice and differentiate it from the others it is the paramount importance since it is related to the abil ity to identify a person. The bilateral middle and superior temporal gyrus (STG), the bilateral inferior frontal gyrus, and right precuneus are involved in person-identity recognition by a vocal sound.
