Austrian and Israeli subjects were presented tachistoscopically with geometrically transformed numbers, nonsense syllables in Latin letters and Hebrew words (only the Israeli). Opposite reading and writing habits and different hand dominance were used as experimental variables. Criteria for evaluating the data were scanning pattern (voluntary preferred reading direction) and reading performance. A difference in reading pattern was found between Austrian right- and left-handed subjects but no difference in their reading performance. Also between Austrian and Israeli right-handed subjects a difference in the reading pattern appeared as well as in reading performance. Furthermore, the scanning pattern used by Austrian right-handed subjects in reading geometrically transformed numbers was different from their pattern in reading syllables. Distinguished were two sources of asymmetries, an intrinsic in visual mechanisms and a structural one in the stimulus itself.
奥地利和以色列的受试者通过速示器观看经过几何变换的数字、拉丁字母组成的无意义音节以及希伯来语单词（仅针对以色列受试者）。相反的读写习惯和不同的用手偏好被用作实验变量。评估数据的标准是扫描模式（自主偏好的阅读方向）和阅读表现。在奥地利右利手和左利手受试者之间发现了阅读模式的差异，但他们的阅读表现没有差异。此外，奥地利和以色列右利手受试者之间在阅读模式和阅读表现上也出现了差异。此外，奥地利右利手受试者在阅读经过几何变换的数字时使用的扫描模式与阅读音节时的模式不同。区分出了两种不对称的来源，一种是视觉机制固有的，另一种是刺激本身结构上的。
