(a) Accuracy of responses in a same/different discrimination task in adults, adolescents and children for faces and words as a function of hemifield of probe. (b) Correlation between reading competence and degree of lateralization for faces, calculated as accuracy for LVF-RVF. Note the high correlation between the reading skill and face lateralization in the children and young adolescents. (c) Average wave form in voltage (negative plotted downwards) for face and word discrimination over the RH and LH for adults and children. Note the lateralization of the N170 waveform for both faces and words in the adults and the lateralization for words but not for faces in the children. From Dundas et al. (2013, 2014). LH = left hemisphere; RH = right hemisphere; RVF = right visual field; LVF = left visual field.
