The last decade of laterality research has been bolstered by a significant broadening in theoretical framing and investigative approaches. Comparative research contributions continue to strengthen the position that ancient functional and anatomical brain biases are preserved in modern humans. However, how they unfold over developmental time and contribute to cognitive abilities is still unclear. To make further advances, we must position human brains and behaviors within an evolutionary framework. This includes viewing motor-sensory behavior as an integral part of a developing cognitive system.
近年来，侧化研究领域的理论框架和研究方法得到了显著扩展，为该领域提供了更多支持。比较研究的成果不断增强了这样一种观点，即古老的功能性和解剖学大脑偏向在现代人类中得以保留。然而，这些偏向在发展过程中是如何展开的，以及它们如何促进认知能力，仍然不清楚。为了取得进一步的进展，我们必须将人类大脑和行为置于进化框架中。这包括将运动-感觉行为视为发展中的认知系统的一个组成部分。
