Task-hemispheric integrity in dual task performance

open access: yesActa Psychologica, 1982
Abstract A condition of task hemispheric integrity is predicted to result in a dual task situation when the central processing and response components of each task are associated exclusively with a given cerebral hemisphere. The prediction that this condition will generate more efficient time-sharing is tested in a series of four experiments.
