Reversal of ear advantage in recovery from aphasia: a case report.
A reversal from a left ear advantage to a right ear advantage on a digit dichotic listening test was observed during the first 3 months post-onset of aphasia in a 52-yr-old male patient. Explanations for this pattern of recovery were discussed under both a "lesion effect" and a "dominance effect" interpretation.
