Neural correlates of formal thought disorder: An activation likelihood estimation meta‐analysis

Formal thought disorder (FTD) refers to a psychopathological dimension characterized by disorganized and incoherent speech. Whether symptoms of FTD arise from aberrant processing in language‐related regions or more general cognitive networks, however, remains debated. Here, we addressed this question by a quantitative meta‐analysis of published functional neuroimaging studies on FTD. The revised Activation Likelihood Estimation (ALE) algorithm...
