  • Title: Alpha asymmetry over the right and left hemispheres of stutterers and control subjects preceding massed oral readings: a preliminary investigation.
    Author: Moore WH, Lang MK.
    Journal: Percept Mot Skills; 1977 Feb; 44(1):223-30. PubMed ID: 840596.
    Abstract:
    Interhemispheric alpha asymmetry of both stutterers and non-stutterers measured preceding each of five massed oral readings of the same material was investigated. Preliminary results indicated a reduction of alpha over the left hemisphere for non-stutterers, while a reduction for stutterers was found for the right hemisphere. Present results, together with other investigations using dichotic, tachistoscopic, and EEG procedures, suggest right hemispheric processing for the stuttering group as compared with left hemispheric processing for the non-stuttering group.
