Speech processing asymmetry revealed by dichotic listening and functional brain imaging

K Hugdahl, R Westerhausen - Neuropsychologia, 2016 - Elsevier
In this article, we review research in our laboratory from the last 25 to 30 years on the
neuronal basis for laterality of speech perception focusing on the upper, posterior parts of the …

Attention and cognitive control: unfolding the dichotic listening story

K Hugdahl, R Westerhausen, K Alho… - Scandinavian …, 2009 - Wiley Online Library
In this article we present a theoretical approach to cognitive control and attention modulation,
as well as review studies related to such a view, using an auditory task based on dichotic …

The corpus callosum in dichotic listening studies of hemispheric asymmetry: a review of clinical and experimental evidence

R Westerhausen, K Hugdahl - Neuroscience & Biobehavioral Reviews, 2008 - Elsevier
The dichotic listening paradigm using verbal stimulus material typically yields a right ear
advantage (REA) which indicates the left-hemisphere dominance for speech processing. …

Effects of handedness and gender on macro-and microstructure of the corpus callosum and its subregions: a combined high-resolution and diffusion-tensor MRI study

R Westerhausen, F Kreuder, SDS Sequeira… - Cognitive brain …, 2004 - Elsevier
The corpus callosum (CC) represents the major commissural tract connecting the two cerebral
hemispheres and is supposed to play crucial integrative role in functional hemispheric …

The “paradoxical” engagement of the primary auditory cortex in patients with auditory verbal hallucinations: a meta-analysis of functional neuroimaging studies

K Kompus, R Westerhausen, K Hugdahl - Neuropsychologia, 2011 - Elsevier
The existing literature on neuroimaging studies of auditory verbal hallucinations (AVHs) in
patients with schizophrenia contains an apparent “paradox” in that the same areas in the …

Impaired cognitive inhibition in schizophrenia: a meta-analysis of the Stroop interference effect

R Westerhausen, K Kompus, K Hugdahl - Schizophrenia research, 2011 - Elsevier
Schizophrenia has been consistently shown to be associated with impairment in executive
functioning. However, although frequently treated as such, the term executive functioning …

[HTML][HTML] Differences in unity: The go/no-go and stop signal tasks rely on different mechanisms

L Raud, R Westerhausen, N Dooley, RJ Huster - NeuroImage, 2020 - Elsevier
Response inhibition refers to the suppression of prepared or initiated actions. Typically, the
go/no-go task (GNGT) or the stop signal task (SST) are used interchangeably to capture …

A primer on dichotic listening as a paradigm for the assessment of hemispheric asymmetry

R Westerhausen - Laterality: Asymmetries of Body, Brain and …, 2019 - Taylor & Francis
Dichotic listening is a well-established method to non-invasively assess hemispheric
specialization for processing of speech and other auditory stimuli. However, almost six decades of …

Auditory verbal hallucinations in schizophrenia as aberrant lateralized speech perception: evidence from dichotic listening

…, RA Kroken, M Nygård, R Westerhausen… - Schizophrenia …, 2012 - Elsevier
We report evidence that auditory verbal hallucinations (AVH) in schizophrenia patients are
perceptual distortions lateralized to the left hemisphere. We used a dichotic listening task with …
