A modality selective effect of functional laterality in pain detection sensitivity [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2021 The ability to detect environmental changes is essential to determine the appropriate reaction when facing potential threats. Both detection and reaction functions are critical to survival, and the superior performance of motor reaction for the dominant ...

Laterality index in functional MRI: methodological issues
Magnetic Resonance Imaging, 2008 In functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), hemispheric dominance is generally indicated by a measure called the laterality index (LI). The assessment of a meaningful LI measure depends on several methodological factors that should be taken into account when interpreting LI values or comparing between subjects.

Menstrual Cycle Modulation of Verbal Performance and Hemispheric Asymmetry [PDF]
Brain SciencesBackground/Objectives: It has been postulated that sex differences in certain types of verbal abilities arise from sex-dimorphic patterns of hemispheric activation, and that these patterns might be modulated by circulating levels of sex hormones. The aim

Interhemispheric transfer and the processing of foveally presented stimuli [PDF]
, 1994 A review of the literature shows that the LVF and the RVF do not overlap. This means that foveal representations of words are effectively split and that interhemispheric communication is needed to recognise centrally presented ...

Static and dynamic impairment following stroke reflecting hemispheric asymmetry for postural control
Acta Scientiarum. Health Sciences, 2015 This paper evaluates whether there is a relationship between postural control and hemispheric asymmetry following a stroke. Twenty right or left brain-damage patients and ten healthy control subjects were included in this study.

Methodological considerations in assessment of language lateralisation with fMRI: a systematic review [PDF]
PeerJ, 2017 The involvement of the right and left hemispheres in mediating language functions has been measured in a variety of ways over the centuries since the relative dominance of the left hemisphere was first known.

Brain plasticity in aphasic patients: Intra- and inter-hemispheric reorganisation of the whole linguistic network probed by N150 and N350 components [PDF]
, 2015 The present study examined linguistic plastic reorganization of language through Evoked Potentials in a group of 17 non-fluent aphasic patients who had suffered left perisylvian focal lesions, and showed a good linguistic recovery.
