Right-handed individuals (dextrals) rarely show right-brain language dominance. This study found mirrored brain activation patterns in one dextral during language tasks, suggesting rare but functional language organization in the right hemisphere.

Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Cognitive Neuroscience
  • Neuroimaging

Background:

  • Right-handedness (dextrality) is typically associated with left cerebral hemisphere dominance for language.
  • Cases of right hemisphere language dominance in dextrals are exceptionally rare.
