在这期《大脑与语言》特刊中，我们考察了大脑左右半部分的划分对视野中央出现的单词的识别有什么影响。这些不同的文章首次表明，在视觉单词识别模型中，考虑左右大脑半球之间的分裂不一定是不可避免的麻烦，但实际上可能形成解决该文献中长期存在的问题的线索。此外，大脑半球间迁移对中央凹单词识别有影响这一事实也应该引起偏侧性研究人员的兴趣，因为这使得他们的发现对正常阅读更加重要。在这篇介绍性文章中，我首先介绍了目前(缺乏)黄斑中心凹双侧表现的证据的粗略图景，以及没有胼胝体延迟的情况。然后，我简要讨论了不同作者提出的关于如何将中央凹分裂整合到当前视觉单词识别模型中的建议。(C)2003年埃尔塞维尔科学公司(美国)。版权所有。
In this special issue of Brain and Language, we examine what implications the division between the left and the right brain half has for the recognition of words presented in the center of the visual field. The different articles are a first indication that taking into account the split between the left and the right cerebral hemisphere need not be an inescapable nuisance in models of visual word recognition but may in fact form the clue to the solution of a longstanding problem within this literature. Also, the fact that interhemispheric transfer has implications for foveal word recognition should interest laterality researchers, as it makes their findings more central to normal reading. In this introductory article, I first present a rough picture of the current (lack of) evidence for a bilateral representation of the fovea and the absence of a callosal delay. I then briefly discuss the suggestions made by the different authors on how to integrate the foveal split within current models of visual word recognition. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science (USA).
