Asymmetry in the central nervous system: A clinical neuroscience perspective
Recent large-scale neuroimaging studies suggest that most parts of the human brain show
structural differences between the left and the right hemisphere. Such structural hemispheric …

Frontal and parietal EEG alpha asymmetry: a large-scale investigation of short-term reliability on distinct EEG systems
EEG resting-state alpha asymmetry is one of the most widely investigated forms of functional
hemispheric asymmetries in both basic and clinical neuroscience. However, studies yield …

[HTML][HTML] Manual praxis and language-production networks, and their links to handedness
While Liepmann was one of the first researchers to consider a relationship between skilled
manual actions (praxis) and language for tasks performed “freely from memory”, his primary …

Left-handers are less lateralized than right-handers for both left and right hemispheric functions
Many neuroscientific techniques have revealed that more left-than right-handers will have
unusual cerebral asymmetries for language. After the original emphasis on frequency in the …

[HTML][HTML] Let's face it: The lateralization of the face perception network as measured with fMRI is not clearly right dominant
I Thome, JCG Alanis, J Volk, C Vogelbacher… - NeuroImage, 2022 - Elsevier
The neural face perception network is distributed across both hemispheres. However, the
dominant role in humans is virtually unanimously attributed to the right hemisphere …

Language and reading impairments are associated with increased prevalence of non‐right‐handedness
Handedness has been studied for association with language‐related disorders because of
its link with language hemispheric dominance. No clear pattern has emerged, possibly …

[HTML][HTML] Inconsistent language lateralisation–Testing the dissociable language laterality hypothesis using behaviour and lateralised cerebral blood flow
Background Most people have strong left-brain lateralisation for language, with a minority

Limb preference in animals: new insights into the evolution of manual laterality in hominids
Until the 1990s, the notion of brain lateralization—the division of labor between the two
hemispheres—and its more visible behavioral manifestation, handedness, remained fiercely …
