Assessing the role of hemispheric specialisation, serial-position processing, and retinal eccentricity in lateralised word recognition

TR Jordan, GR Patching… - Cognitive …, 2003 - Taylor & Francis
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 …

Lateralized word recognition: assessing the role of hemispheric specialization, modes of lexical access, and perceptual asymmetry.

TR Jordan, GR Patching, AD Milner - Journal of Experimental …, 2000 - psycnet.apa.org
The processing advantage for words in the right visual field (RVF) has often been assigned
to parallel orthographic analysis by the left hemisphere and sequential by the right. The …

Language and task effects on lateralized word recognition

F Melamed, E Zaidel - Brain and Language, 1993 - Elsevier
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 …

Re-evaluating split-fovea processing in word recognition: Effects of retinal eccentricity on hemispheric dominance.

TR Jordan, KB Paterson, M Stachurski - Neuropsychology, 2008 - psycnet.apa.org
Several studies have claimed that hemispheric asymmetries affect word recognition right up
to the point of fixation because each fovea is split precisely at its vertical midline and …

Different modes of word recognition in the left and right visual fields

DN Bub, J Lewine - Brain and Language, 1988 - Elsevier
We confirm previous evidence indicating that word length has a substantial effect on word
recognition in the LVF but a much weaker effect in both the RVF and fovea. The nature of …

Assessing effects of fixation demands on perception of lateralized words: A visual window technique for studying hemispheric asymmetry

TR Jordan, GR Patching - Neuropsychologia, 2006 - Elsevier
A major concern when using lateralized words to study hemispheric asymmetry is that the
retinal eccentricity of targets is matched across visual hemifields. The standard technique is …

The relationship between reading ability and lateralized lexical decision

SA Weems, E Zaidel - Brain and Cognition, 2004 - Elsevier
Although lexical decision remains one of the most extensively studied cognitive tasks, very
little is known about its relationship to broader linguistic performance such as reading ability …

The effects of display and report order asymmetries on lateralized word recognition

DB Boles - Brain and Language, 1985 - Elsevier
Word recognition typically is better or faster in the right visual field than in the left visual field,
an effect that often interacts with the handedness of subjects or the phonetic characteristics …

Cerebral asymmetries in the level of attention required for word recognition

MER Nicholls, AG Wood, L Hayes - Laterality: Asymmetries of Body …, 2001 - Taylor & Francis
Words presented to the right visual field (RVF) are recognised more readily than those
presented to the left visual field (LVF). This RVF advantage could reflect:(a) the direct …

ERP evidence of hemispheric independence in visual word recognition

D Nemrodov, Y Harpaz, DC Javitt, M Lavidor - Brain and Language, 2011 - Elsevier
This study examined the capability of the left hemisphere (LH) and the right hemisphere
(RH) to perform a visual recognition task independently as formulated by the Direct Access …
