Popis: Visual discrimination of several types of stimuli were trained to each hemisphere of split-brain monkeys. Stimuli that differed only in orientation and that were spatially redundant were learned in fewer trials by the left hemisphere than by the right. Other stimuli, such as bilaterally symmetrical patterns, up-down mirror images, or photographs of monkeys' faces were learned, on the average, equally easily by either hemisphere. These preliminary results suggest that monkeys may exhibit some degree of cerebral dominance.
