Abstract:
The functional asymmetry of the human brain hemispheres (motor, sensory, and mental) reflects the differences in the distribution of neuro-psychic functions between the left and right hemispheres. The left hemisphere is responsible for the brain's abstract-logical, inductive thinking, and verbal-analytical functions. The right hemisphere provides visual-figurative, deductive thinking. The dominance of the left hemisphere determines left-hemispheric thinking, while the dominance of the right hemisphere determines right-hemispheric thinking. The synchronous functioning of both hemispheres indica

Abstract:
Previous neuroimaging studies have claimed a left hemisphere specialization for episodic “encoding” and a right hemisphere specialization for episodic “retrieval.” Yet studies of split-brain patients indicate relatively minor memory impairment after disconnection of the two hemispheres. This suggests that both hemispheres are capable of encoding and retrieval. In the present experiment, we examined the possible limits on encoding capacity of each hemisphere by manipulating the “depth” of processing during the encoding of unfamiliar faces and familiar words in the left and right hemispheres of

AbstractHemispheric asymmetries, i.e., differences between the two halves of the brain, have extensively been studied with respect to both structure and function. Commonly employed pairwise comparisons between left and right are suitable for finding differences between the hemispheres, but they come with several caveats when assessing multiple asymmetries. What is more, they are not designed for identifying the characterizing features of each hemisphere. Here, we present a novel data-driven framework—based on machine learning-based classification—for identifying the characterizing features tha

Hemispheric asymmetry in the processing of local and global features has been argued to originate from differences in frequency filtering in the two hemispheres, with little neurophysiological support. Here we test the hypothesis that this asymmetry takes place at an encoding stage beyond the sensory level, due to asymmetries in anatomical connections within each hemisphere. We use two simple encoding networks with differential connection structures as models of differential encoding in the two hemispheres based on a hypothesized generalization of neuroanatomical evidence from the auditory mod

Abstract Background and Study Aims Language mapping by navigated transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is commonly applied over the left language-dominant hemisphere to indicate the language-related cortex. Detailed language mapping of Broca's region including stimulation targets in the immediate vicinity to the premotor cortex may raise concern about confounding unspecific motor effects. We performed interhemispheric comparisons to delineate such possible unspecific effects from true TMS-induced language inhibition.

32 patients in the early recovery period of ischemic stroke in the right and left hemispheres of the brain were examined in order to assess the level and characteristics of cognitive functions and anxiety-depressive disorders for planning personalized rehabilitation treatment. Pre-dementia was detected in 42.1% of patients according to the results of the Short Mental Status Assessment Scale (MMSE), which is more common in patients with left-hemisphere stroke. Clinical depression, as well as subclinical and clinical anxiety are detected more often in left-hemisphere stroke. The inverse correlat

Aims. Sunspot activity is often hemispherically asymmetric, and during the Maunder minimum, activity was almost completely limited to one hemisphere. In this work, we use surface flux simulation to study how magnetic activity limited only to the southern hemisphere affects the long-term evolution of the photospheric magnetic field in both hemispheres. The key question is whether sunspot activity in one hemisphere is enough to reverse the polarity of polar fields in both hemispheres. Methods. We simulated the evolution of the photospheric magnetic field from 1978 to 2016 using the observed acti

Kosslyn (1987) proposed that the left hemisphere is better than the right hemisphere at categorical visuospatial processing while the right hemisphere is better than the left hemisphere at coordinate visuospatial processing. In 134 patients, one hemisphere (and then usually the other) was temporarily deactivated by intracarotid injection of sodium amobarbital. After a hemisphere was deactivated, a cognitive test battery was conducted, which included categorical and coordinate visuospatial tasks. Using this technique, the processing capabilities of the intact hemisphere could be determined, thu

Owing to the hemispheric isolation resulting from a severed corpus callosum, research on split-brain patients can help elucidate the brain regions necessary and sufficient for moral judgement. Notably, typically developing adults heavily weight the intentions underlying others' moral actions, placing greater importance on valenced intentions versus outcomes when assigning praise and blame. Prioritization of intent in moral judgements may depend on neural activity in the right hemisphere's temporoparietal junction, an area implicated in reasoning about mental states.

Familiarity of form exerted a substantial effect on perception. In particular, per

Previous research has shown that the right hemisphere processes low spatial frequencies more efficiently than the left hemisphere, which preferentially processes high spatial frequencies.

Thus, it is unclear whether the hemispheres differ in perceptual selection from multiple spatial frequencies that are simultaneously present in the environment, without bias from se
