Grasso, Camille L.; Ziegler, Johannes C.; Mirault, Jonathan; Coull, Jennifer T.; Montant, Marie – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2022
The processing of time activates a spatial left-to-right mental timeline, where past events are "located" to the left and future events to the right. If past and future words activate this mental timeline, then the processing of such words should interfere with hand movements that go in the opposite direction. To test this hypothesis, we…

Boiteau, Timothy W.; Almor, Amit – Cognitive Science, 2017
Previous research has linked the concept of number and other ordinal series to space via a spatially oriented mental number line. In addition, it has been shown that in visual scene recognition and production, speakers of a language with a left-to-right orthography respond faster to and tend to draw images in which the agent of an action is…

Railo, H.; Tallus, J.; Hamalainen, H. – Brain and Cognition, 2011
Studies have suggested that supramodal attentional resources are biased rightward due to asymmetric spatial fields of the two hemispheres. This bias has been observed especially in right-handed subjects. We presented left and right-handed subjects with brief uniform grey visual stimuli in either the left or right visual hemifield. Consistent with…

Tesio, Luigi; Longo, Stefano; Rota, Viviana – International Journal of Rehabilitation Research, 2011
The study sought to provide norms for a simple test of visual perception of verticality (subjective visual vertical). The study was designed as a cohort study with a balanced design. The setting was the Rehabilitation Department of a University Hospital. Twenty-two healthy adults, of 23-58 years, 11 men (three left handed) and 11 women (three left…

Thaler, Lore; Todd, James T. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2010
Visual information can specify spatial layout with respect to the observer (egocentric) or with respect to an external frame of reference (allocentric). People can use both of these types of visual spatial information to guide their hands. The question arises if movements based on egocentric and movements based on allocentric visual information…

Hove, Michael J.; Spivey, Michael J.; Krumhansl, Carol L. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2010
Prior research indicates that synchronized tapping performance is very poor with flashing visual stimuli compared with auditory stimuli. Three finger-tapping experiments compared flashing visual metronomes with visual metronomes containing a spatial component, either compatible, incompatible, or orthogonal to the tapping action. In Experiment 1,…

Harris, Jill L.; Mosley, James L. – American Journal on Mental Retardation, 1992
Twenty-four adults with mild mental retardation were compared with equal-mental age children and adults without mental retardation on tactile processing asymmetries. Results suggest that hemispheric processing is dependent on information processing requirements rather than type of stimulus. (Author/JDD)

Rose, Susan A.; Feldman, Judith F.; Futterweit, Lorelle R.; Jankowski, Jeffery J. – Developmental Psychology, 1998
Examined, over a 10-year span, continuity in individual differences in cross-modal transfer to visually recognized shapes that had previously been felt but not seen. Found that cross-modal performance showed a left-hand advantage at 11 years. Cross-age correlations were significant when tactual exploration at 11 years was done with the left hand.…
