Abstract:
ERPs (N1, P1, N2, P2) obtained from left and right occipital and temporal lobes were elicited in 30 left-handed highly proficient bilingual males in response to visually presented linguistic stimuli. The absence of statistically significant(P = < or =0.05) differences between left and right occipital and temporal lobes in all the components of the waveforms obtained, indicates a bilateral pattern of lateralization in left-handed males for both their native and foreign language.
