Multiple Modes of Right-Hemisphere Information Processing: Age and Sex Differences in Facial Recognition.
Turkewitz, Gerald; Ross-Kossak, Phyllis
Developmental Psychology, v20 n1 p95-103 Jan 1984
Examines hemispheric differences in processing tachistoscopically presented faces in right-handed 8-, 11-, and 13-year-olds. Concludes that younger children and males at all ages use a diffuse right-hemisphere processing strategy in recognizing faces, whereas some older females use a more integrated right-hemispheric strategy.
