Abstract
Synopsis: This review of the data on bilinguals in relation to hypnosis, psychotherapy and psychotic disorders presents evidence for the bilateral representation of language in the cerebral hemispheres of bilinguals, and outlines possible links between the neuropsychology of psychotic disorders and the lateralization of language in these patients. The relationship between affective states and the retrieval of memories and language is also explored.Keywords
