A new methodology is able to precisely detect specific activities in different areas of the brain, and do so in real time (i.e., ongoing recording of activity with no delay).
How would such a methodology provide evidence for parallel processing as an individual solves a lexical decision task?
a) It would show simultaneous activation of brain areas devoted to encoding and areas devoted to search
b) It would show no delay between activation of encoding areas and activation of response areas.
c) It would show that areas devoted to encoding are activated before areas devoted to search.
d) It would show equal activation of encoding and response areas and greater activation of search areas.
