MAIN FINDING: The auditory cortex of deaf individuals supports higher-order processing despite reduced sensory input.
KEY EVIDENCE: fMRI results reveal significant representations of task rules and sensory modality in both deaf and hearing individuals.
APPROACH: The study utilized fMRI and representational similarity analysis with deaf (N=13) and hearing (N=18) participants.
SIGNIFICANCE: Findings highlight the role of sensory experience in shaping cognitive processing and the functions of sensory brain regions.
