Furthermore, we were able to replicate the results of a previous fMRI study, thereby strengthening the role of fMRI as measurement technique to observe program comprehension and other related cognitive processes.enfunctional magnetic resonance imagingprogram comprehensionneural efficiencyText/Conference Paper1617-5468
