Abstract: | Background Current cognitive neuroscience models predict a right-hemispheric dominance for face processing in humans. However, neuroimaging
and electromagnetic data in the literature provide conflicting evidence of a right-sided brain asymmetry for decoding the
structural properties of faces. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether this inconsistency might be due to gender
differences in hemispheric asymmetry. |
