Effects of form familiarity on perception of words, pseudowords, and nonwords in the two cerebral hemispheres.

Abstract Extract:
Previous investigations of hemispheric processes of word perception provide a mixed picture of the sensitivity of each hemisphere to the familiarity of the visual form of lateralized displays. We investigated this issue by presenting words, pseudowords, ... (Full abstract text below)
