| Abstract | Introduction Frequency modulation (FM) is a common feature of acoustic communication signals in many animals and humans. FM components are critical in determining the communicative function of monkey calls (1) and seem to be important elements of human prosody (“pitch contour”) (2). Furthermore, lesion studies on animals show that the right but not the left auditory cortex is necessary to discriminate the direction of FM (3). We investigated the activation of the auditory cortex during discrimination of the direction of FM as an important distinctive feature of prosodies in humans. |
