    This study on Serbo-Croatian speakers found a right visual field advantage for lexical decisions. However, hemispheric processing of phonological features differed between sexes and word types.

    Area of Science:

    • Cognitive Psychology
    • Neuroscience
    • Linguistics

    Background:

    • Phonologically bivalent letter strings in Serbo-Croatian slow lexical decisions compared to unique strings.
    • This linguistic feature can be used to investigate hemispheric processing capacities.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To assess the linguistic capacity of the two cerebral hemispheres using phonologically bivalent stimuli.
    • To examine sex differences in hemispheric processing of words and pseudowords.

    Main Methods:

    • Lexical decision tasks were performed on laterally presented words and pseudowords in Serbo-Croatian.
    • Stimuli varied in phonological bivalence and were presented to assess visual field advantages.

    Main Results:

    Related Experiment Videos

  • A right visual field advantage was observed for both words and pseudowords in both males and females.
  • Hemispheric processing of phonological demands varied between sexes and between word types (words vs. pseudowords).
  • The pattern of these sex-based hemispheric differences was opposite for words and pseudowords.
  • Conclusions:

    • While a general right visual field advantage exists, the cerebral hemispheres process phonological information differently, with sex-specific and word-type-specific variations.
    • These findings highlight complex interactions between language, visual processing, and hemispheric specialization.
