The right visual field superiority in word recognition has been attributed to an attentional advantage by the left brain hemisphere. We investigated whether such advantage involves lateralised covert attention, in the absence of overt fixat...
Sylvian fissure asymmetry in capuchin monkeys (Cebus apella) [0.03%]
卷尾猴(Saimiri sciureus)的 Sylvian 沟不对称性
Sherry T Liu,Kimberley A Phillips
Sherry T Liu
Asymmetries of the sylvian fissure (SF) are believed to reflect an enlargement of the posterior temporal lobe, particularly a region that corresponds to part of Wernicke's area in humans. In nonhuman primates the homologue to the region may...
The influence of classical dance training on preferred supporting leg and whole body turning bias [0.03%]
古典舞蹈训练对Preferred Supporting Leg和Whole Body Turning Bias的影响

A rightward turning bias has been more frequently noted during adult classical dance practice than during spontaneous rotations. Training could play a role in inducing a preferred direction. We observed the preferred direction for executing...

Although previous studies have suggested a relationship between mixed-handedness and schizotypic symptoms, possibly indicating a predisposition to schizophrenia, the participants involved were exclusively from Western cultures. Only two rep...

Searleman and Porac (2001) studied lateral preference patterns among successfully switched left-hand writers, left-hand writers with no switch pressure history, and left-hand writers who did not switch when pressured. They concluded that le...

People tend to display the left cheek when posing for a portrait; however, this effect does not appear to generalise to advertising. The amount of body visible in the image and the sex of the poser might also contribute to the posing bias. ...
Investigating bimanual coordination in dominant and non-dominant virtual hands [0.03%]
主导和非主导虚拟手的双侧上肢协调运动研究

A bias in attention towards the dominant hand has been cited as a possible factor in the lateralisation of human bimanual coordination (Peters, 1981). A mirror was placed between the hands of 18 dextral participants performing rhythmic anti...

Previous studies of motor laterality in dogs have produced some conflicting results, with inconsistencies in lateral biases across sexes, over time, and across tasks. The current study modified published food-retrieval and tape-removal test...
Head-turning asymmetries during kissing and their association with lateral preference [0.03%]
接吻时的头部转动不对称性及其与侧偏好的关联
Sebastian Ocklenburg,Onur Güntürkün
Sebastian Ocklenburg
A head-turning bias to the right side is one of the earliest functional asymmetries in human development and is already present during the final weeks of gestation. To test whether head-turning preference is related to other lateral prefere...
Individual differences in the preferred neck-resting position of Caribbean flamingos (Phoenicopterus ruber) [0.03%]
加勒比火烈鸟（Phoenicopterus ruber）偏好的颈部休息姿势的个体差异

When resting, flamingos often lay their heads along their backs. While in this position they must curve their necks to either the right or left of their midline. Observations of captive Caribbean flamingos at the Philadelphia Zoo (Philadelp...
