Figure-Background Perception and Cerebral Dominance: Hypothesized Integrated Process of Hemispheric Specialization.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Ruggieri, Vezio; And Others – Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1982
The hypothesis was that the two hemispheres have different functions in normal vision, the dominant one analyzing the "figure," and the nondominant the "background." The investigation examined responses of 41 female psychology students. Results were consistent with the hypothesis. (Author/RD)

Children's Reaction Times to Verbal and Nonverbal Tachistoscopic Stimuli Exposed to the Left and Right Visual Hemifields.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Messina, T. M. Fogliani; Fogliani, A. M. – Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1981
Tachistoscopic tests to identify three-letter words and simple geometric shapes were administered to 64 Italian children, ages 7-8. Results showed no significant differences in visual perceptual threshold between the two hemifields for either test, which was interpreted as confirming a lesser and not definitely determined lateralization in…

Children's Categorical Representation of Oblique Orientation.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Scher, Anat; Olson, David R. – Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1982
Seven-year-olds compared successively presented oblique lines which varied as to their position within a square display and their relation to the diagonal axis of the display. Children apparently encoded lines in terms of position and axis features. They used a categorical spatial representational system to compare oblique lines. (Author/RD)
