--- abstract: |- The present chapter concerns the issue of hemispheric specialization for perceptual and cognitive processes. In spite of a long-lasting view that only humans are lateralized (e.g., Warren, 1980), there is now strong documentation for anatomical lateralizations, functional lateralizations, or both in several animal taxa, including birds, rodents, and nonhuman primates (see Bradshaw & Rogers, 1993; Hellige, 1993). We selectively report demonstrations from studies of nonhuman primates. After a short review of the evidence for structural (anatomical) lateralization, we describe... altloc: - http://www.up.univ-mrs.fr/wpsycle/documentpdf/documentvauclair/Vauclair%20et%20al%20APA%2099.pdf chapter: ~ commentary: ~ commref: ~ confdates: ~ conference: ~ confloc: ~ contact_email: ~ creators_id: [] creators_name: - family: Vauclair given: J honourific: '' lineage: '' - family: Fagot given: J honourific: '' lineage: '' - family: Dépy given: D honourific: '' lineage: '' date: 1999 date_type: published datestamp: 2004-04-30 department: ~ dir: disk0/00/00/36/04 edit_lock_since: ~ edit_lock_until: ~ edit_lock_user: ~ editors_id: [] editors_name: - family: Haug given: M honourific: '' lineage: '' - family: Whalen given: R E honourific: '' lineage: '' eprint_status: archive eprintid: 3604 fileinfo: /style/images/fileicons/application_pdf.png;/3604/1/Vauclair_et_al_APA_99.pdf full_text_status: public importid: ~ institution: ~ isbn: ~ ispublished: pub issn: ~ item_issues_comment: [] item_issues_count: 0 item_issues_description: [] item_issues_id: [] item_issues_reported_by: [] item_issues_resolved_by: [] item_issues_status: [] item_issues_timestamp: [] item_issues_type: [] keywords: 'hemispheric specialization, animal models, nonhuman primates, lateralization, visual processing' lastmod: 2011-03-11 08:55:32 latitude: ~ longitude: ~ metadata_visibility: show note: ~ number: ~ pagerange: 247-256 pubdom: FALSE publication: Animal Models of Human Emotion and Cognition publisher: 'New York: APA Books' refereed: TRUE referencetext: ~ relation_type: [] relation_uri: [] reportno: ~ rev_number: 12 series: ~ source: ~ status_changed: 2007-09-12 16:52:07 subjects: - behav-neuro-sci succeeds: ~ suggestions: ~ sword_depositor: ~ sword_slug: ~ thesistype: ~ title: ' Nonhuman primates as models of hemispheric specialization' type: bookchapter userid: 4872 volume: ~
