The Functional Genetics of Handedness and Language Lateralization

Despite the fact that some authors assume that handedness and language lateralization share a common ontogenetic basis, gene ontology sets ...

The Functional Genetics of Handedness and Language Lateralization

Handedness and language lateralization have often been thought to share a common ontogenetic basis. Although specific genetic influences contributing to ...

A large-scale estimate on the relationship between language and ...

Here, only 0.4% of the variance in language lateralization were explained by handedness. We complemented these analyses with Bayesian statistics ...

Handedness and its genetic influences are associated with ... - PNAS

There were small average differences between the two handedness groups in brain regions important for hand control, language, vision, and working memory.

Language lateralization in left-handed and ambidextrous people

Associations observed between personal handedness and LI and family history of handedness and LI may indicate a common genetic factor underlying the inheritance ...

The ontogenesis of language lateralization and its relation to ...

Accordingly, carriers of two RS+ alleles have the highest chance of being right-handed and left-lateralized for language, while this probability is reduced in ...

Associations between handedness and brain functional connectivity ...

Here we show a strong association between handedness and the laterality of the functional connectivity patterns in the absence of differences in structural ...

insights from brain imaging and genetics - Oxford Academic

The brain signature and genetic basis of handedness are unclear. Wiberg et al. show that left-handers have higher functional connectivity ...

(2005) examined a further sample of left- and right-handers for language and spatial laterality. They found both functions lateralized to the left in seven ...

Cerebral lateralization of language in normal left-handed people ...

Results: Ninety-six percent of right-handed subjects showed fMRI changes lateralized to the left hemisphere, whereas 4% showed a bilateral activation pattern.

The genetics and evolution of handedness. - APA PsycNet

At some point in hominid evolution, a mutation may have produced a "dextral" (D) allele, strongly biasing handedness in favor of the right hand and control ...
