Abstract:
This thesis examines object-guided actions. Recently, micro-affordance effects have shown that a visual object affords actions automatically. These effects are observed when the grasp type (precision and power grasp) is facilitated by size (small and large) of the categorized object (the object-size effect), or when right or left hand responses are facilitated by object orientation (the object-orientation effect). It has been shown elsewhere that attentional mechanisms have a vital role in visually guided movements. In addition, visually guided movements have associated with hemispheric latera

This thesis concerns itself with the study of lateral preference and performance behaviours for the functions of handedness and language. The research reported in this thesis addresses the measure and expression of handedness, in the light of current theory and practice; it explores the possibility of differences between left and right handers; it discusses evidence for the existence of a functional relationship between handedness and language; it reports on the expression of language processes within a normal subject population and it reviews the application and interpretations of commonly us

Abstract:
Observing others performing actions is a common way to learn new motor skills. Such ability appears to be linked with one’s ability to imagine actions (motor imagery) (Wang et al. 2014). While motor imagery has been widely used in the context of athletic performance, the same approach has also been advocated in rehabilitation settings, where they often target populations with chronic pain using mobile health applications (de la Vega and Miro 2014). However, we still have very limited information as to how the ability to perform motor imagery addresses this rehabilitation application (Johnson

Abstract:
Various hypotheses derived from Annett's (1972; 1985) genetic theory of handedness are experimentally tested. Results from the first investigation show that excessive bias in favour of right handedness is due to a weakness in left rather than superiority of right hand skill, and is associated with poor nonverbal reasoning ability. A second investigation indicated that risks to reading problems were increased in children with either too little or too much bias in favour of dextrality.

Abstract:
Stankov's work on attention and intelligence suggests that the dual task paradigm, requiring the division of attention, is a better measure of general intellectual ability than the single task paradigm which does not make this demand. Sixty right handed undergraduates remembered digit and visual-spatial sequences alone and in two dual task conditions involving lateralized key tapping as the primary task. R gher intercorrelations were found under dual task conditions in which the tasks competed for the same hemisphere's resources. Better memory performance resulted when both tasks were laterali

Abstract:
It is well known that language processing depends on specialized areas in the left side of the brain in the majority of the population. A popular view is that developmental language disorders result from a poorly lateralized brain, but evidence in support of this has been weak and inconsistent. In this thesis, I investigated language-related asymmetries in brain structure and function, and their behavioural relevance in both individuals with specific language impairment (SLI) and typically developing adults.

Substantial evidence shows that attentional bias towards threat plays a fundamental role in anxiety and that deficits in frontal brain functioning might explain this.

When radiologists examine X-rays, it is crucial that they are aware of the laterality of the examined body part. The laterality refers to which side of the body that is considered, e.g. Left and Right. The consequences of a mistake based on information regarding the incorrect laterality could be disastrous. This thesis aims to address this problem by providing a deep neural network model that classifies X-rays based on their laterality. X-ray images contain markers that are used to indicate the laterality of the image. In this thesis, both a classification model and a detection model have been

Abstract:
Previously, the ability to subitize (i.e. to immediately quantify a small set of items without counting) was thought to occur for sets of up to seven items and was explained using a developmental canonical pattern recognition approach. Unfortunately, this approach was unable to account for the ability to subitize linear or random arrays of items, thereby, inspiring a pattern learning and recognition (through stimulus repetition and systematic variation of a base pattern) approach. The latter approach, however, suggests that subitizing is not an independent psychological process and simply occu

This lateralization has also been observed in afferent as well as efferent projections to nuclei in the brainstem, hypothalamus, and amygdala.
