Superiority of the Left Cerebral Hemisphere in Word Recognition with Nonverbal Central Fixation
Year: 1984 Journal: Perceptual and Motor Skills Vol: 59 (3)Pages: 895-898 Publisher: SAGE Publishing
Abstract
The right visual-field advantage for bilateral presentation put forward by McKeever and Huling was investigated. The central-fixation task was varied so that in one condition this task was nonverbal. Results gave some support for scanning-type explanations in this paradigm but over-all favoured Kinsbourne's activation-and-priming account.
