Journal ArticleDOI
Cerebral lateralization. Biological mechanisms, associations, and pathology: II. A hypothesis and a program for research.
TL;DR: The hypothesis is that slowed growth within certain zones of the left hemisphere is likely to result in enlargement of other cortical regions, in particular, the homologous contralateral area, but also adjacent unfaffected regions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Symmetry and limb dominance in able-bodied gait: a review.
TL;DR: The literature reviewed shows that gait symmetry has often been assumed, to simplify data collection and analysis, and asymmetrical behavior of the lower limbs during able-bodied ambulation was addressed in numerous investigations and was found to reflect natural functional differences between the lower extremities.
Journal ArticleDOI
Limb bone bilateral asymmetry: variability and commonality among modern humans.
TL;DR: Average diaphyseal breadths in both the upper and lower limbs have the greatest absolute and directional asymmetry among all populations, with lower asymmetry evident in maximum lengths or articular dimensions.

A general theory concerning the prenatal origins of cerebral lateralization in humans.
TL;DR: The origins of cerebral lateralization in humans are traced to the asymmetric prenatal development of the ear and labyrinth, whereas the failure to develop clear vestibular asymmetry may underlie the poor motoric lateralization found in several neurodevelopmental disorders.
