The present study investigated electrocortical and cardiovascular reactivity during positive and negative emotion, and examined the relation of asymmetric frontal lobe activation to cardiovascular responses. Participants were 30 healthy,... more
To investigate the overlap between dissociative and bipolar disorders with reference to their neurophysiological foundations. Case reports of anomalous lateralization and shifts in handedness associated with both affective and... more
Ultradian rhythms of alternating cerebral dominance have been demonstrated in humans and other mammals during waking and sleep. Human studies have used the methods of psychological testing and electroencephalography (EEG) as measurements... more
The N170 component for visual word recognition is lateralized to the left hemisphere in occipitotemporal regions for hearing, right-‐handed individuals and has been associated with highly automatic orthographic processing in accomplished... more
One of the intriguing and sometimes controversial findings in figurative language research is a right- hemisphere processing advantage for novel metaphors. The current divided visual field study introduced novel literal expressions as a... more
Individuals show marked variation in their responses to threat. Such individual differences in behavioral inhibition play a profound role in mental and physical well-being. Behavioral inhibition is thought to reflect variation in the... more
Planned and reflexive behaviors often occur in the presence of emotional stimuli and within the context of an individual’s acute emotional state. Therefore, determining the manner in which emotion and attention interact is an important... more
