RIGHT-HEMISPHERE MEMORY SUPERIORITY: Studies of a Split-Brain Patient
Six experiments explored hemispheric memory differences in a patient who had undergone complete corpus callosum resection. The right hemisphere was better able than the left to reject new events similar to originally presented materials of several types, including abstract visual forms, faces, and categorized lists of words. Although the left hemisphere is capable of mental manipulation, imagin...
متن کاملDeep dyslexia is right-hemisphere reading.
Two views exist concerning the proper interpretation of the form of acquired dyslexia known as deep dyslexia: (a) that it represents reading by a multiply damaged left hemisphere reading system; (b) that it represents reading which relies extensively on right-hemisphere orthographic and semantic processing. Price, Howard, Patterson, Warburton, Friston, and Frackowiak (1998) have recently report...
متن کاملCerebral and callosal organisation in a right hemisphere dominant "split brain" patient.
Patients described in previous reports who have undergone corpus callostomy for control of seizures have been left hemisphere dominant for language. To determine the hemispheric localisation (and possible coexistence) of language and traditional right hemisphere skills in reversed dominance, the first right hemisphere dominant corpus callostomy patient was studied. Localisation of callosal func...
متن کاملCoarse coding and discourse comprehension in adults with right hemisphere brain damage.
BACKGROUND: Various investigators suggest that some discourse-level comprehension difficulties in adults with right hemisphere brain damage (RHD) have a lexical-semantic basis. As words are processed, the intact right hemisphere arouses and sustains activation of a wide-ranging network of secondary or peripheral meanings and features-a phenomenon dubbed "coarse coding". Coarse coding impairment...
متن کاملRight hemisphere dominance for understanding the intentions of others: evidence from a split-brain patient.
Understanding the actions performed by other people is a key aspect of social interaction, including in clinical settings where patients are learning from therapists and caregivers. While lesions of the left cerebral hemisphere induce praxic disorders, the hemispheric specialisation of intention understanding remains unclear. Do patients with a right hemispheric lesion understand the intentions...
