Abstract
34 right-handed women of college age who consistently responded with leftward (“left-movers”) or rightward (“right-movers”) reflective lateral eye movements were tested on spatial and non-spatial syllogisms while engaged in an eye-tracking task. Contrary to expectation, no interaction between tracking direction and syllogism type was observed. Left-movers performed better on all tasks. The results are discussed in relation to hemispheric asymmetry.This publication has 12 references indexed in Scilit:
