  • Title: Lateral onset asynchrony in left-handers.
    Author: Hatta T.
    Journal: Percept Mot Skills; 1976 Aug; 43(1):255-9. PubMed ID: 958820.
    Abstract:
    Study of matching judgment was designed to demonstrate an effect of lateral onset asynchrony in left-handed subjects, 7 males and 8 females. Japanese Hirakana letters or random forms were presented to one visual field first and to the other visual field second. 15 left-handers were requested to judge whether the successively presented stimuli were "same" or "different." The results showed that for both types of stimuli there are no differences in accuracy of matching judgement whether the standard stimulus was presented to the right visual field first or to the left. These results indicate that the left-handed subjects may have a tendency toward hemispheric equi-potentiality for recognition of both verbal and non-verbal materials.
