  • Title: Hemispheric asymmetries in phonological processing.
    Author: Lukatela G, Carello C, Savić M, Turvey MT.
    Journal: Neuropsychologia; 1986; 24(3):341-50. PubMed ID: 3736816.
    Abstract:
    In Serbo-Croat, lexical decision to phonologically bivalent letter strings is slowed relative to their phonologically unique counterparts. This feature was exploited in order to assess the linguistic capacity of the two hemispheres. Lexical decision to laterally presented words and pseudowords revealed a right visual field advantage for both males and females in words and pseudowords. But the demands of phonological processing were not met in the same way by the two hemispheres, the two hemispheres did not respond in the same way in the two sexes, and the pattern of these differences was opposite for words and pseudowords.
