FORMATION AND DISTRIBUTION PATTERNS OF FUNCTIONAL INTERHEMISPHERIC BRAIN ASYMMETRY IN CHILDREN WITH INTELLECTUAL DISABILITIES.

Abstract

The study of the dynamics of interhemispheric relations during adaptation to changing environmental conditions, as well as during brain lesions or functional disorders in the activity of any structures, has revealed a predominant increase in the activation of the right hemisphere. Studies by different authors also show that many pathological brain states are characterized by a deviation of the functional brain asymmetry profile from that recorded in a normally functioning CNS. In our research we tried to trace the peculiarities of the formation of individual asymmetry profile under the influence of sensory deprivation in children with hearing pathology.
