Sex differences and cognitive/motor interference with visual half-field stimulation.
This study examines the possible influence of the response on the asymmetry of lexical decision in a visual half-field study and whether sex differences in asymmetry might be determined by response factors. The results support the importance of these factors: when response demands were increased (pressing the button three times instead of once) the reaction time asymmetry was reversed for male subjects.
