Left–right word recognition asymmetries in central and peripheral vision
Word recognition for Western languages shows an increased probability of a correct response when words are presented to the right of fixation. We considered whether this right bias was consistent at eccentricities superior and inferior to fixation and whether this bias can be altered by different presentation strategies. A right bias of up to approximately 0.9 degrees to the right of fixation w...
متن کاملHandedness and macular vision: laterality of motor control underpins both.
This article pursues the corollaries of the anatomy of handedness recently discovered. Specifically, it addresses the issues concerning central vision as it relates to the command center and the circuitry of the saccades. It presents data that support the directionality of callosal traffic in motor and sensory realms even further. Evidence is presented that denotes a relationship between the an...
متن کاملThe mirror-neuron system and handedness: a "right" world?
To assess the relationship between the mirror-neuron system (MNS), an observation-execution matching system, and handedness, we acquired functional magnetic resonance imaging from 11 right-handed (RH) and eight left-handed (LH) subjects to identify regions involved in processing action (execution and observation) of the right and left upper limbs. During the execution tasks, LH subjects had a m...
متن کاملHandedness and Asymmetry of Motor Skill Learning in Right-handers
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The most remarkable behavioral asymmetry is handedness. The preferred hand often has better performance, motor strength, nonpreferred hand. However, whether these components are associated with skill learning is not clear. METHODS We evaluated healthy right-handers by setting a series of motor-performance tasks including skill learning, grip strength, and speed. RESUL...
متن کاملProblems of peripheral vision.
THE FIRST points to be considered in a study of peripheral vision are whether light can reach the periphery at all; and, if so, whether it suffers any loss of intensity as compared with the light reaching the fovea, and also whether the dioptric system is capable of producing a good image with the light which reaches the periphery. The reduction in intensity due to light-absorption in the media...
