Resumo(s)
Holistic processing has been regarded as a hallmark of face perception,
indicating the automatic and obligatory tendency of the visual system to
process all face parts as a perceptual unit rather than in isolation. Studies
involving lateralized stimulus presentation suggest that the right hemisphere
dominates holistic face processing. Holistic processing can also be shown with
other categories such as words and thus it is not specific to faces or face-like
expertize. Here, we used divided visual field presentation to investigate the
possibly different contributions of the two hemispheres for holistic word
processing. Observers performed same/different judgment on the cued parts
of two sequentially presented words in the complete composite paradigm.
Our data indicate a right hemisphere specialization for holistic word
processing. Thus, these markers of expert object recognition are domain
general.
