Differential-handed response to verbal and visual spatial stimuli: evidence of specialized hemispheric processing following callosotomy.

abstract：:This study investigated the influence of the symbol type and numerical distance of numbers on the amplitudes and peak latencies of event-related potentials (ERPs). Our aim was to (1) determine the point in time of magnitude information access in visual number processing; and (2) identify at what stage the advantage of...
