This result suggests that intermodal speech perception is facilitated by rightward orientation of attention and subserved by the left hemisphere.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉MacKain, K -- Studdert-Kennedy, M -- Spieker, S -- Stern, D -- HD-01944/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- HD-05407/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1983 Mar 18;219(4590):1347-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6828865" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
