Two experiments were conducted to investigate the influence of coding instructions on cerebral laterality differences. Experiment I required 20 subjects (10 female) to use either rehearsal or imagery coding strategies in a recognition task with word probes to the right and left hemispheres. No hemispheric differences were found, but sex of subject was found to be related to coding strategy. Ten subjects (5 female) in Experiment II performed a similar task, except picture probes were used. Subjects using rehearsal coding responded faster to left-hemisphere probes, but faster to right-hemisphere probes when imagery coding was employed. The differing laterality effects in these experiments were attributed to naming responses implicitly required in Experiment II.
两项实验旨在探究编码指令对大脑侧化差异的影响。实验一要求 20 名被试(10 名女性)在识别任务中分别使用复述或意象编码策略,刺激词呈现在左右半脑。实验未发现大脑侧化差异,但被试的性别与编码策略相关。实验二由 10 名被试(5 名女性)完成,实验过程与实验一相似,只是刺激图片呈现在左右半脑。使用复述编码的被试对左半脑刺激图片的反应更快,而使用意象编码时对右半脑刺激图片的反应更快。这两个实验的不同侧化效应归因于实验二中隐式要求的命名反应。
