TL;DR: In this paper, two circles of same or different size were presented haploscopically in a binocular three-field tachistoscope, to right or left visual half-field and to the upper or lower visual field, one to the right eye and one to left.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ventricular enlargement in schizophrenia. A meta-analysis of studies of the ventricle:brain ratio (VBR)
J D Van Horn,I. C. McManus +1 more
TL;DR: There is a difference in VBR between schizophrenics and controls which would seem to be an indisputable characteristic of schizophrenia, but the difference is probably too small to be of practical significance in diagnosis, or in the differentiation of subtypes.
Journal Article
Objects look different sizes in the right and left eyes
I. C. McManus,Julia Tomlinson +1 more
TL;DR: There was no association with eye dominance, and therefore the Coren and Porac finding could not be repeated, but there was however a very significant association with handedness, left-handed subjects tending to report that the stimulus in the right eye looked larger, and right- handed subjects reporting that the stimuli in the left eye looked smaller.
The right shift theory of a genetic balanced polymorphism for cerebral dominance and cognitive processing. Commentaries. Author's reply
M. Annett,A. A. Beaton,J. L. Bradshaw,C. Brand,M. P. Bryden,M. Carlier,M. B. Casey,M. C. Corballis,G. Dellatolas,F. Curt,J. W. Gilger,L. Jäncke,K. N. Laland,T. M. Maryutina,I. C. McManus,G. F. Michel,M. W. O'boyle,Michael Peters,Clare Porac,J. F. Stein,Helmuth Steinmetz,J. W. Van Strien +21 more
TL;DR: The right shift (RS) theory of handedness as mentioned in this paper suggested that the high prevalence of human right-handedness and left hemisphere specialization for speech is due to a single factor which induces the typical pattern of cerebral specialization and incidentally displaces a chance distribution of manual asymmetry toward dextrality.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hand preference and hand skill in children with autism
Kim Cornish,I. C. McManus +1 more
TL;DR: There is no evidence of a dissociation of hand skill and hand preference in children with autism compared to children with learning disabilities and normal developing children.
