Abstract The position of any event in time could be in the present, past, or future. This temporal discrimination is vitally important in our daily conversations, but it remains elusive how the human brain distinguishes among the past, present, and future. To address this issue, we searched for neural correlates of presentness, pastness, and futurity, each of which is automatically evoked when we hear sentences such as “it is raining now,” “it rained yesterday,” or “it will rain tomorrow.” Here, we show that sentences that evoked “presentness” activated the bilateral precuneus more strongly than those that evoked “pastness” or “futurity.” Interestingly, this contrast was shared across native speakers of Japanese, English, and Chinese languages, which vary considerably in their verb tense systems. The results suggest that the precuneus serves as a key region that provides the origin (that is, the Now) of our time perception irrespective of differences in tense systems across languages.

Brain activity data prove the existence of qualitatively different structures in the brain. However, the question is whether the human brain acts as linguists assume in their models. The modular architecture of grammar that has been claimed by many linguists raises some empirical questions. One of the main questions is whether the threefold abstract partition of language (into syntactic, phonological, and semantic domains) has distinct neural correlates.

Sociocultural Experiences

Is the human brain shaped by our sociocultural experiences, and if so, how? What are the neural correlates of cultural diversity of human behavior? Do genes interact with sociocultural experiences to moderate human brain functional organization and behavior? The Sociocultural Brain examines the relationship between human sociocultural experience and brain functional organization. It introduces brain imaging studies that identify neural correlates of culturally familiar gesture, music, brand, and more. It reviews cultural neuroscience findings of cross-cultural differences in human brain activity underlying multiple cognitive and affective processes (e.g., visual perception and attention, memory, causal attribution, inference of others’ mental states, self-reflection, and empathy). Further, it reviews studies that integrate brain imaging and cultural priming to explore a causal relationship between culture and brain functional organization. It also examines empirical findings of genetic influences on the coupling between brain activity and cultural values. The book aims to provide a new perspective on human brain functional organization by highlighting the role of human sociocultural experience and its interaction with genes in shaping the human brain and our behavior. Finally, the book discusses the implications of cultural neuroscience findings for understanding the nature of the human brain and culture, as well as implications for education, cross-cultural communication and conflict, and clinical treatment of mental disorders.
