Two findings serve as the hallmark for hemispheric specialization during lateralized lexical
decision. First is an overall word advantage, with words being recognized more quickly and …

We compared behavioral laterality effect in a lexical decision task using cued unilateral or
bilateral presentations of different stimuli to normal subjects. The goals were to determine …

The advantage for words in the right visual hemifield (RVF) has been assigned parallel
orthographic processing by the left hemisphere and sequential by the right. However, an …

Behavioral laterality effects in naming and lexical decision in Farsi and English were used to
evaluate three theories of cross-linguistic differences. First, the Scanning hypothesis predicts …

Three experiments explore aspects of the dissociable neural subsystems theory of
hemispheric specialisation proposed by Marsolek and colleagues, and in particular a study …

Consistent with converging experimental evidence, we assume that foveal information is
initially split across the two cerebral hemispheres. We have previously presented the …

Although some researchers consider language to be the fundamental function for which the
left hemisphere is specialized (eg, Corina, Vaid, & Bellugi, 1992), as this volume attests, the …

Through computational modeling, here we examine whether visual and task characteristics
of writing systems alone can account for lateralization differences in visual word recognition …

The present study examined the manner in which both hemispheres utilize prior semantic
context and relative meaning frequency during the processing of homographs. Participants …

In several experiments, we compared behavioral and electrophysiological correlates of
hemifield tachistoscopic presentations of single words and nonwords for lexical decision in …
