Creative, paranormal, and delusional thought: a consequence of right hemisphere semantic activation?

Neuropsychiatry, neuropsychology, and behavioral neurology - 1 Oct 1998

Leonhard D, Brugger P

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: There is a rapidly growing body of evidence for an association between schizophrenic syndromes and the absence of a clear pattern of hemispheric dominance for language. Independent work with healthy subjects suggests that one feature of right hemispheric (RH) linguistic processing is a coarse as opposed to a focused semantic activation. We provide a comprehensive review of the literature to these...
