Social connectedness is fundamental to health and life satisfaction. Empathic capacities that support social connections are commonly impaired following damage to the brain’s right hemisphere, but how these acquired socio-emotional deficits correspond t

Purpose To describe the nonliteral language deficits associated with right hemisphere disorder (RHD), discuss the neuroimaging data associated with the processing of nonliteral language, and to offer some suggestions for treating this type of cognitive-linguistic disorder. Method In this discussion, we...
Slowness is a common complaint in children with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and with developmental right hemisphere syndrome. However, it was our clinical impression that slowness in developmental right hemisphere syndrome was more prominent than in ADHD. Our objective was to assess ...
This pattern of results—i.e., showing a distinct difference in RH processing of affective semantic content—may be viewed as evidence in support of either a right hemisphere dominance theory of emotion or the circumplex model. Also, consistent Acknowledgements This study was supported by funds ...
“Thus they even drove me into hating music, which is now the delight and at the same time the support of my life … In all my life I have never hated anything or anyone as much as I hated the violin at the time.” (226) “So hatten sie mir die Musik, die jetzt die Freude un...
"As such, the half of the brain contralateral to the hand is better in controlling fine motor movements (e.g., the left-brain hemisphere in right-handers). The strength of this preference varies between individuals. Some people have a very strong preference for one hand and resulting from ...
If the contribution of such artefacts to the association between baseline N100 amplitude and treatment outcome is substantial, the strongest effect would be expected to occur at the hemisphere where the rTMS coil is placed, as this would be the region where the most muscle movements, electrode ...
id=2367). Briefly, in vivo whole-brain T1-weighted MRI scans were used to perform cortical parcellation into 34 regions per hemisphere with the Desikan–Killiany atlas120, and 7 subcortical structural segmentations. Surface area was measured at the grey–white matter boundary, and thickness was ...
hemisphere language dominance and strong right-hand preference (Kennedy et al., 1999). Furthermore, mirror-image or “bookend” asymmetries observed in non-conjoined monozygotic twins appear to be restricted to traits above the neck, including hair whorl direction, hand preference, dental patterns ...
