| Abstract | Sensory half-field studies is one of the techniques available to neuropsychology for investigating the functional organization of the normal brain. Compared to other techniques, such as EEG, cerebral blood flow and PET scans, it is by far the cheapest and requires the least expertise to use. Many scientists would consider this a mixed blessing. The very accessibility of the technique makes it possible for anyone with minimal training and equipment to conduct experiments and produce publishable results. As a result, the laterality literature is replete with effects that are small or inconsistent (sometimes both), and with theories that are typically vague or simple- minded. Or so critics from outside and within the field would have us believe. |
