This is probably due to a bias throughout cognitive neuroscience and psychology, leading to a strong focus on vision in split-brain research. It is important to collect converging evidence by investigating the somatosensory system which is also strongly lateralized.

For several decades, split-brain research has provided valuable insight into the fields of psychology and neuroscience. These studies have progressed our knowledge of hemispheric specialization, language processing, the role of the corpus callosum, cognition, and …

2017年4月10日 · When information is presented to one hemisphere in a split-brain patient, the information is not transferred to the other hemisphere (as the corpus callosum is cut). Sperry and Gazzaniga conducted many different experiments, including describe what you see tasks, tactile tests, and drawing tasks.

2017年1月24日 · In extensive studies with two split-brain patients we replicate the standard finding that stimuli cannot be compared across visual half-fields, indicating that each hemisphere processes information independently of the other.

2012年11月6日 · Split-brain surgery, or corpus calloscotomy, is a drastic way of alleviating epileptic seizures, the occurrence of sporadic electrical storms in the brain. The procedure involves...

2024年9月30日 · By severing the corpus callosum, scientists effectively created two separate “mini-brains” within a single skull. The consequences of this radical procedure were nothing short of mind-blowing. Enter Roger Sperry, a neuropsychologist with …

2024年9月14日 · Explore the fascinating world of split brain research in psychology, its key findings, and implications for understanding human cognition and consciousness.

2025年1月28日 · That’s essentially what happens in split brain personality, a fascinating phenomenon that occurs when the corpus callosum – the superhighway of nerve fibers connecting the two hemispheres of the brain – is severed. This isn’t some mad scientist’s experiment gone wrong.

2017年4月10日 · Here are some key evaluation points on split-brain research. It is assumed that the main advantage of brain lateralisation is that it increases neural processing capacity (the ability to perform multiple tasks simultaneously).

2024年2月9日 · From the history of split-brain studies to the implications for psychology, this article explores the intricacies of split-brain surgery, the key findings of research, and the implications for understanding consciousness and brain functioning.
