Language lateralization was assessed with a dual task procedure in 10 male right-handed patients with Down's Syndrome and relatively preserved linguistic skills. Their performance was compared with that of two control groups, with and without mental retardation, matched with Down's Syndrome individuals for sex, handedness and I.Q. Results did not support the hypothesis that mental retardation is related to specific pattern of cerebral lateralization.
采用双重任务程序对10名患有唐氏综合征且语言能力相对保留的右利手男性患者进行语言侧化评估。将他们的表现与两个对照组进行比较,这两个对照组分别有和没有智力障碍,在性别、利手和智商方面与唐氏综合征个体相匹配。结果不支持智力障碍与大脑侧化的特定模式有关这一假设。
