Iaccino, James F. – 1989
A study examined laterality effects observed in previous studies in which men as well as right-handers show a right-visual field (RVF) advantage for letter recall and a left-visual field (LVF) advantage for letter position recall, suggesting asymmetrical brain organization for these groups. Subjects, 96 undergraduates equally divided by sex and…

Gadzella, Bernadette M.; And Others – 1991
Differences between left and right hemispheric subjects in recalling information presented as pictures and words were studied. The hemisphericity of 133 college students (37 males and 96 females) was identified using the Human Information Process Survey. These subjects were shown 25 concrete nouns individually either as pictures or words. The data…

Botkin, James W.; And Others – 1980
This report describes some current research which links selected aspects of brain research to selected issues in education. These issue areas include: (1) the relationship between neurophysiology and cognition; (2) the implications of cerebral lateralization for creativity, imagery, and art education; (3) sex differences in brain functioning; (4)…

Rickman, David L. – 1996
According to A. R. Luria (1973) the cerebral organization of mental activity can be understood through analyzing how mental activity is altered in different local brain lesions. Recent brain function research has used this approach in locating areas of the brain involved in specific processes. This study recognized the importance of this method…

Johnson, Susan A. – 1983
A literature review was conducted to identify factors in recent brain research related to the needs of elementary school students and to provide a comprehensive list of strategies from which teachers may choose to improve the "brain compatibility" of their classrooms. Annotations of 65 articles are provided. Articles are arranged…
