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 …

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 …

This study examined the relationship between morphological structure of languages and
performance asymmetries of native speakers in lateralized tasks. In 2 experiments, native …

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 …

Abstract Words presented to the right visual field (RVF) are processed more rapidly than
those in the left visual field (LVF), presumably because of more direct links to the language …

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 …

Despite the extensive clinical and neuropsychological evidence for major differences in
language function between the left and right hemispheres, it has proven difficult to …

Sixteen French–English late bilinguals performed a speeded language recognition task on
lateralized words that were either marked or unmarked for language on the basis of digram …

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 …

Behavioral laterality tasks with linguistic stimuli were used to assess the differential
processing efficiencies of the cerebral hemispheres in right-and left-handed adults. Findings …
