An inspection time task, used to gauge differences in speed of information processing between the hemispheres, was administered to 22 normal subjects. It was found that the left visual field-right hemisphere (LVF-RH) exhibited an inferior performance relative to the right visual field-left hemisphere (RVF-LH). These results were consistent with other studies which have found an RVF-LH advantage for the processing of temporal/serial information. The possible ramifications of these results for models of asymmetry which do and do not attribute the left hemisphere's preferential capacity for language to these fundamental processes are then discussed.
对22名正常受试者进行了一项用于测量半球间信息处理速度差异的检查时间任务。结果发现，相对于右视野-左半球（RVF-LH），左视野-右半球（LVF-RH）表现较差。这些结果与其他研究一致，这些研究发现RVF-LH在处理时间/序列信息方面具有优势。然后讨论了这些结果对于不对称模型的可能影响，这些模型将或不将左半球在语言方面的优先能力归因于这些基本过程。
