Abstract
In this comment to Ocklenburg et al.'s paper I stressed the contribution that computational ethology can provide to the accurate tracking of lateralized behaviour in a variety of species; I also discussed how current interest in so-called «minimal cognition» may help to disentangle shared and species-specific mechanisms of brain and behavioural asymmetries.
期刊介绍:
Laterality: Asymmetries of Body, Brain and Cognition publishes high quality research on all aspects of lateralisation in humans and non-human species. Laterality"s principal interest is in the psychological, behavioural and neurological correlates of lateralisation. The editors will also consider accessible papers from any discipline which can illuminate the general problems of the evolution of biological and neural asymmetry, papers on the cultural, linguistic, artistic and social consequences of lateral asymmetry, and papers on its historical origins and development. The interests of workers in laterality are typically broad.
