Mental workload during n-back task-quantified in the prefrontal cortex using fNIRS.

TL;DR: Results show that measuring hemodynamic responses in the PFC with fNIRS, a non-invasive imaging modality, can be used to robustly quantify and classify mental workload.

Handedness is not a unidimensional trait.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that sampling a wide range of manual activities reveals dimensions of hand preference that are independent, suggesting that manual preference is governed by more than one neural system and that these systems may be independently lateralized.

Separating syntactic memory costs and syntactic integration costs during parsing: the processing of German WH-questions

TL;DR: In this article, participants processed case-unambiguous German subject and object WH-questions with either a long or short distance between the WH-filler and its gap, and a sustained left anterior negativity was observed for object questions with long filler-gap distance but not for short object questions.

Who did what to whom? The neural basis of argument hierarchies during language comprehension.

TL;DR: It is argued that, for German, posterior superior temporal and inferior frontal regions engage in the extraction of actorhood from morphosyntactic structure and in the sequential realization of hierarchical interpretive dependencies, respectively.

Systematic evaluation of the impact of stimulation intensity on neuroplastic after‐effects induced by transcranial direct current stimulation

TL;DR: While intra‐individual responses showed good reliability, inter‐individual sensitivity to TMS accounted for a modest percentage of the variance in the early after‐effects of 1.0 mA anodal tDCS, which may be of practical relevance for future optimizations.

The binomial distribution of right, mixed and left-handedness

TL;DR: Right, mixed and left handers are found in binomial proportions in seven samples of varied subjects whose lateral preferences were ascertained by several methods.

Handedness in musicians

TL;DR: In this article, the authors made an inquiry by means of a questionnaire which included a "handedness inventory" into the prevalence of left-handedness among musicians, and the difficulties, if any, which lefthanders experienced in acquiring executant skills.

Cerebral Dominance and Its Relation To Psychological Function

Randolph K. Byers
- 01 Mar 1963 - 
TL;DR: It is true that a few cases of this disease are seen from time to time in Australia; but the patients have been immigrants infected in their country of Orkney in the Mediterranean area.
