Reposting this as I see too many decoding papers reporting (and struggling to interpret) spurious lower-than-chance decoding accuracy that is probably due high-pass filtering...

❓Are #TheoryOfMind (inferring others’ mental states) brain areas always engaged to understand what people mean, or only for specific speech act types? And if so, why? 🤔 🎉 New work in @royalsocietypublishing.org w @isabellaboux.bsky.social& #FPulvermüller royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/...

What does it mean to understand language? We argue that the brain’s core language system is limited, and that *deeply* understanding language requires EXPORTING info to other brain regions. w/ @neuranna.bsky.social @evfedorenko.bsky.social @nancykanwisher.bsky.social arxiv.org/abs/2511.19757 1/n🧵👇
