Superior Temporal Gyrus (STG) and cerebellum show different activation profile during simple arithmetic addition task in quiet and in noisy environment: an fMRI study

Despite a vast number of studies that were focused on the roles of superior temporal gyrus (STG) and cerebellum as sensory area, little is known about their involvement in cognitive function such as attention and perception. The present fMRI study aimed to identify this cognitive role from brain act...
