Hausmann, M. (2016). Why sex hormones matter for neuroscience: A very short review on sex, sex hormones, and functional brain asymmetries. Journal of Neuroscience Research, 95(1-2), 40-49. https://doi.org/10.1002/jnr.23857

Biological sex and sex hormones are known to affect functional cerebral asymmetries (FCAs). Men are generally more lateralized than women. The effect size of this sex difference is small but robust. Some of the inconsistencies in the literature may b... Read More about Why sex hormones matter for neuroscience: A very short review on sex, sex hormones, and functional brain asymmetries.

Sex hormones modulate neurophysiological correlates of visual temporal attention (2016)
Journal Article
Kranczioch, C., Lindig, A., & Hausmann, M. (2016). Sex hormones modulate neurophysiological correlates of visual temporal attention. Neuropsychologia, 91, 86-98. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuropsychologia.2016.08.004

The functional cerebral asymmetry (FCA) in processing targets within rapid serial visual presentation (RSVP) streams has been reported to fluctuate across the menstrual cycle, with identification of the second of two closely spaced targets being impa...

Music-induced changes in functional cerebral asymmetries (2016)
Journal Article
Hausmann, M., Hodgetts, S., & Eerola, T. (2016). Music-induced changes in functional cerebral asymmetries. Brain and Cognition, 104, 58-71. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.bandc.2016.03.001

After decades of research, it remains unclear whether emotion lateralization occurs because one hemisphere is dominant for processing the emotional content of the stimuli, or whether emotional stimuli activate lateralised networks associated with the...

Stability of right visual field advantage in an international lateralized lexical decision task irrespective of participants’ sex, handedness or bilingualism (2016)
Journal Article
Willemin, J., Hausmann, M., Brysbaert, M., Dael, N., Chmetz, F., Fioravera, A., …Mohr, C. (2016). Stability of right visual field advantage in an international lateralized lexical decision task irrespective of participants’ sex, handedness or bilingualism. Laterality, 21(4-6), 502-524. https://doi.org/10.1080/1357650x.2015.1130716

In lateralized lexical decision tasks (LDTs), accuracy is higher and reaction times (RTs) are faster for right visual field (RVF) than left visual field (LVF) presentations. Visual field differences are thought to demonstrate the left hemisphere's (L...
