In this study lateral differences in tympanic membrane temperature (T(Ty)) were explored as a correlate of either impulsive or cautious responding in Go-No-Go tasks. Thirty-two women and men performed two sustained attention to response tasks (Go-No-Go tasks). Those with warmer right in comparison to left tympanic membranes were more cautious, and those with warmer left in comparison to right tympanic membranes were more impulsive. This finding is in line with previous research and theory indicating a hemispheric bias for active and passive behavior. T(Ty) may be a useful addition to the techniques employed by neuropsychologists.
在这项研究中，我们探讨了鼓膜温度（T(Ty)）的侧别差异是否与 Go-No-Go 任务中的冲动或谨慎反应有关。32 名女性和男性进行了两项持续注意力反应任务（Go-No-Go 任务）。与左侧相比，右侧鼓膜温度更高的人更加谨慎，而与右侧相比，左侧鼓膜温度更高的人则更加冲动。这一发现与之前的研究和理论一致，即表明主动和被动行为存在半球偏向。T(Ty)可能是神经心理学家使用的技术的有益补充。
