The Mechanisms and Consequences of Cerebral Lateralization
… Examining the mechanisms that give rise to cerebral lateralization, Experiments 1 and 2 tested the assumption that there is a causal relationship in the degree and direction of lateralization between left- and right-hemisphere dominant tasks. In experiment 1, this relationship between …

The Arts in Education: A Possible Key to Whole Brain Utilization and Positive Self-Concept
… (2) Is there a relationship between cerebral dominance and curricular involvement in the arts? If so what is the direction of that relationship? (3) Is there a relationship between cerebral dominance and self-concept? If so what is the direction of that relationship? Procedures. …

Naturalistic Visuomotor Behaviours Reveal Reduced Handedness Lateralization In Autism
… investigates how handedness, a robust marker of cerebral lateralization, is modulated in autistic and non-autistic right-handed adults (n=27 per group) using a naturalistic LEGO® model-building task. Participants recreated five models from blocks placed on a standardized tabletop, enabling …

Generation of mismatch negativity in a sample of treatment-resistant schizophrenia patients
… electrode location. Although no cerebral lateralization was noted, the patient group displayed larger negativities at the left and right temporal sites, and at the left frontal scalp location than the normal subjects. Behavioral and ERP measures of performance to task-relevant …

Right hemisphere decline in the perception of emotion as a function of aging
The hypothesis that the right cerebral hemisphere declines more quickly than the left cerebral hemisphere in the normal aging process was tested in two studies using a facial recognition and a response time task. In Study 1, subjects (N=60) were asked to identify facial affect fram 50 standardized …

Differential Efficts of Hostility on Frontal Lobe Performance: A dual task approach with Fluency and Cardiovascular Regulation
… verbal and nonverbal fluency, and the concurrent cerebral regulation of autonomic nervous system functioning was examined. Forty-eight right-handed males were recruited for participation with half classified as low-hostile and the other half as high-hostile. Previous research has shown that …

Hostility and Cardiovascular Regulation: An Investigation of Lateralized Pre-Motor Functions
… By examining this issue through a functional cerebral systems approach, one is better able to conceptualize changes that occur when men with extreme hostility levels (e.g. high and low) carry out emotional regulation tasks. High and low hostile groups have been shown to differ in their …
