Popis: The direction of conjugate lateral eye movements was assessed in four juvenile and four adolescent chimpanzees ( Pan troglodytes ). A significant bias in favor of left eye movements was found in the two older adolescents. Neither the two younger adolescents nor the four juveniles revealed a significant asymmetry in the direction of conjugate lateral eye movements. The data suggest that mature members of this species so closely related to man may demonstrate a bias in hemispheric activation similar to that demonstrated by Homo spiens .
