Prelinguistic infants recognized structural correspondences in acoustic and optic properties of synchronized, naturally spoken disyllables, but did so only when they were looking to their right sides. This result suggests that intermodal speech perception is facilitated by rightward orientation of attention and subserved by the left hemisphere.
语言前阶段的婴儿能够识别同步自然说出的双音节在声学和视觉属性上的结构对应关系，但只有当他们看向右侧时才能做到。这一结果表明，跨通道言语感知通过注意力向右定向得到促进，并由左半球提供支持。
