Hemispheric differences in the organization of memory for text ideas.
The goal of this study was to examine hemispheric asymmetries in episodic memory for discourse. Access to previously comprehended information is essential for mapping incoming information to representations of "who did what to whom" in memory. An item-priming-in-recognition paradigm was used to examine differences in how the hemispheres represent discourse. Both hemispheres retained accurate in...
متن کاملRunning head: HEMISPHERIC DIFFERENCES IN SPOKEN WORD RECOGNITION Examining potential hemispheric differences in talker effects in spoken word recognition
Variability in talker identity, one type of indexical variation, has demonstrable effects on the speed and accuracy of spoken word recognition. Furthermore, variability in visual word recognition, such as changes in font, appears to affect processing differently, depending on which cerebral hemisphere initially processes the input. The present study examined whether such hemispheric differences...
متن کاملHemispheric differences in indexical specificity effects in spoken word recognition.
Variability in talker identity, one type of indexical variation, has demonstrable effects on the speed and accuracy of spoken word recognition. Furthermore, neuropsychological evidence suggests that indexical and linguistic information may be represented and processed differently in the 2 cerebral hemispheres, and is consistent with findings from the visual domain. For example, in visual word r...
متن کاملHemispheric differences in the recognition of environmental sounds.
Recent work has found support for two dissociable and parallel neural subsystems underlying object and shape recognition in the visual domain: an abstract-category subsystem that operates more effectively in the left cerebral hemisphere than in the right, and a specific-exemplar subsystem that operates more effectively in the right hemisphere than in the left. Evidence of this asymmetry has bee...
متن کاملAttention, awareness, and hemispheric differences in word recognition.
-When subjects attend to the task of naming a briefly presented picture, their naming latencies are affected by a word presented by the side of the picture whether they are able to recognise the word or not. For unreported words the effect is stronger with related than with unrelated words, but this is reversed for words which enter awareness. Moreover, this relationship is largely a left hemis...
