Laterality effects in dichotic listening: relations with handedness and reading ability in children.
TLDR
Dichotic listening performance was investigated in 234 children in grades 2, 4, and 6, and girls showed the adult pattern of ear dominance earlier than boys, and the relation between laterality effects and reading ability was investigated.About:

Sex differences in human brain asymmetry: a critical survey
TL;DR: This review provides a critical framework within which two related topics are discussed: Do meaningful sex differences in verbal or spatial cerebral lateralization exist?

Hemisphere differences in the acquisition and use of descriptive systems.
Elkhonon Goldberg,Louis Costa +1 more
TL;DR: Differences in neuroanatomical organization of the cerebral hemispheres may account for two fundamental distinctions in processing: the right hemisphere has a greater ability to perform intermodal integration and to process novel stimuli and the left hemisphere is more capable of unimodal and motor processing as well as the storage of compact codes.

Handedness and sex differences in hemispheric asymmetry
Deborah A. Lake,M.P. Bryden +1 more
TL;DR: There was a significant sex difference overall, such that males were more clearly lateralized than females on a dichotic listening task, and the hypothesis of a sex difference is at least tenable and merits further investigation.

Sex differences in cognition
TL;DR: In this paper, sex differences in cognitive skills, grouped into three areas (motor, spatial, and linguistic) are assessed in the context of current notions of cerebral lateralization (Buffery and Gray, 1972).
Journal ArticleDOI
Developmental dyslexia: two right hemispheres and none left
TL;DR: The bilateral neural involvement in spatial processing may interfere with the left hemisphere's processing of its own specialized functions and result in deficient linguistic, sequential cognitive processing and in overuse of the spatial, holistic cognitive mode.

Left-right differences in the perception of melodies
TL;DR: In this article, normal subjects were given two auditory tests, one consisting of spoken digits presented dichotically, the other of melodies presented di erently, and the score for the right ear was the same as the left ear.

Tachistoscopic recognition, handedness, and cerebral dominance☆
TL;DR: This paper found that right-handers were significantly more accurate in identifying material presented to the right side, while lefthanders failed to show any consistent left-right differences on the dichotic listening task.
