摘要
The effect of scanning direction on perception of space is studied with a visuo-motor bisection task, among 120 normal dextrals with opposite reading habits (60 French subjects, 60 Israeli subjects). Bisection is found to depend upon subject's reading habits. Israeli bisected the line to the right of the objective centre, while French subjects placed their subjective middle to the left of the objective one. Results are discussed with respect to hemispheric activation theories, directional hypotheses and the neglect syndrome.
