title: Attentional effects on reaching in hemispace.
abstract: Previous evidence notes that attentional information in the form of visually guided stimuli can override motor dominance when programming reaching-to-grasp movements in contralateral hemispace. The present experiment verified these effects for 135 university students, using an auditory stimulus, and the pattern of behavior in the two modalities was quite similar.
