Spatial field advantages for tactile line bisection as a function of hemispheric specialisation inferred from dichotic listening.

abstract：:Although across-test intra-individual variability (IIV), or dispersion, has been shown to be a valuable marker of neurological health in a variety of clinical samples, IIV has not been well examined in the context of mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI). In the present study, we examined measures of IIV in military Vete...
