Direct linkPropper, Ruth E.; Brunye, Tad T.; Christman, Stephen D.; Januszewskia, Ashley – Brain and Cognition, 2012
Based on their specialized processing abilities, the left and right hemispheres of the brain may not contribute equally to recall of general world knowledge. US college students recalled the verbal names and spatial locations of the 50 US states while sustaining leftward or rightward unilateral gaze, a procedure that selectively activates the…

Ramon, Meike; Rossion, Bruno – Brain and Cognition, 2012
In two behavioral experiments involving lateralized stimulus presentation, we tested whether one of the most commonly used measures of holistic face processing--the composite face effect--would be more pronounced for stimuli presented to the right as compared to the left hemisphere. In experiment 1, we investigated the composite face effect in a…

Bachmann, Valerie; Fischer, Martin H.; Landolt, Hans-Peter; Brugger, Peter – Brain and Cognition, 2010
Little is known about the neuropsychological factors that contribute to individual differences in the asymmetric orientation along the mental number line. The present study documents healthy subjects' preference for small numbers over large numbers in a random number generation task. This preference, referred to as "small-number bias" (SNB),…

Voyer, Daniel – Brain and Cognition, 2011
The present study quantified the magnitude of sex differences in perceptual asymmetries as measured with dichotic listening. This was achieved by means of a meta-analysis of the literature dating back from the initial use of dichotic listening as a measure of laterality. The meta-analysis included 249 effect sizes pertaining to sex differences and…

Ketelsen, Kirk; Welsh, Marilyn – Brain and Cognition, 2010
The current study was designed to examine the possible existence of two limited-capacity pools of central executive resources: one each for verbal and visuospatial processing. Ninety-one college students (M age = 19.0, SD = 2.2) were administered a verbal working memory task that involved updating numbers in 2-, 3-, and 4-load conditions. The task…

Gouveia, Paula Adriana Rodrigues; Brucki, Sonia Maria Dozzi; Malheiros, Suzana Maria Fleury; Bueno, Orlando Francisco Amodeo – Brain and Cognition, 2007
The aim of this study was to investigate deficits in planning ability using an adapted version of the Modified Six Elements Test, from the Behavioral Assessment of the Dysexecutive Syndrome--BADS [Wilson, B. A., Alderman, N., Burgess, P. W., Emslie, H., & Evans, J. J. (1996). "Behavioural Assessment of the Dysexecutive Syndrome…
