TL;DR: Positron emission tomography was used to investigate changes in regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) in neurologically normal subjects during word reading and word repetition, and it is argued that they are consistent with localization of a lexicon for spoken word recognition in the middle part of the left superior and middle temporal gyri, and a Lexicon for written word Recognition in the posterior part ofThe left middle temporal gyrus.

Mu rhythm modulation during observation of an object-directed grasp
TL;DR: In this paper, the human electroencephalographic mu rhythm is suppressed during the observation of actions performed by other persons, an effect that may be functionally related to the behaviour of so-called mirror neurons observed in area F5 of nonhuman primates.

The cerebral balance of power: confrontation or cooperation?
TL;DR: It is suggested that cerebral lateralization of cognitive functions results from differences in sensorimotor resolution capacities of the hemispheres, with the right hemisphere being more adept at processing early-available low frequencies and the left hemisphere operating more efficiently on later- available low frequencies.

Minds at rest? Social cognition as the default mode of cognizing and its putative relationship to the ''default system" of the brain
TL;DR: It is suggested that human beings have a predisposition for social cognition as the default mode of cognizing which is implemented in the robust pattern of intrinsic brain activity known as the "default system".

Action Representation of Sound: Audiomotor Recognition Network While Listening to Newly Acquired Actions
TL;DR: Functional magnetic resonance imaging findings support the hypothesis of a “hearing–doing” system that is highly dependent on the individual's motor repertoire, gets established rapidly, and consists of Broca's area as its hub.

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
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.
