A Dual-Task Investigation of Language-Spatial Lateralization.
Stellern, John; And Others
Journal of Learning Disabilities, v20 n9 p551-56 Nov 1987
Investigation of the language-spatial lateralization of 76 intermediate grade right-handed regular education students found that "good" students had normal left hemisphere language and right hemisphere spatial lateralization but "poor" students had nonnormal lateralization. Academic problems and behavior problems were correlated with nonnormal brain organization, suggesting that many non-handicapped slow learners may be learning disabled. (Author/DB)
