ABSTRACT

After a lot of work by a great many researchers over a good many years, we still seem to have no good theoretical model of how interhemispheric transfer is effected and what is transferred. Particularly vexatious is the area of language. The closest approximation extant to a rock-solid finding in the study of human cerebral lateralization is the common finding that language tasks are done more accurately and with greater speed in the right visual field-left hemisphere (RVF-LH) than in the left visual field-right hemisphere (LVF-RH).
