Abstract
An inspection time task, used to gauge differences in speed of information processing between the hemispheres, was administered to 22 normal subjects. It was found that the left visual field-right hemisphere (LVF-RH) exhibited an inferior performance relative to the right visual field-left hemisphere (RVF-LH). These results were consistent with other studies which have found an RVF-LH advantage for the processing of temporal/serial information. The possible ramifications of these results for models of asymmetry which do and do not attribute the left hemisphere's preferential capacity for language to these fundamental processes are then discussed.
