Abstract

The aim of this study was to investigate the performance of patients with unilateral hemisphere damage in immediate and delayed recognition of meaningless visual patterns (scrawls). In both tasks the group with right hemisphere damage was found to be inferior. The impairment was considered to reflect a hemispheric asymmetry in perception, which is apparent whenever subtle visual discrimination is required. The assumption that the right hemisphere plays a role in certain types of memory processes was not confirmed.
