Musical training can counteract age-related decline in speech perception in noisy environments.However,it remains unclear whether older non-musicians and musicians rely on functional compensation or functional preserv...
Trigeminal-specific stimulants have been shown to activate different receptors preferentially and this likely accounts for variation in sensory perception.It is unclear whether trigeminal sensitivity is similar across...
supported by institutional funding from the Universitàdegli Studi di Milano(to D.R.),Universitàdegli Studi di Padova(to C.S.),and the Istituto Nazionale per la Protezione e la Ricerca Ambientale(ISPRA)(to J.G.C.).Nest-boxes were installed with support from the European Commission through the LIFE Project“Rapaci Lucani”(LIFE05NAT/IT/00009)and were designed by G.Ceccolini.
Costs and benefits of brain lateralization may depend on environmental conditions.Growing evidence indicates that the development of brain functional asymmetries is adaptively shaped by the environmental conditions ex...

Objective The purpose of the study was to evaluate the efficiency of the supine roll test(SRT)and alternative positional tests(APTs)including the bow and lean test(BLT),pseudo-spontaneous nystagmus(PSN),and lying down...
Reverse shoulder arthroplasty(RSA)can treat severe rotator cuff deficiency,but its medialized design of the shoulder's center of rotation(CoR)has been associated with scapular notching.Although lateralization of CoR p...

Behavioural lateralization,which reflects the functional specializations of the two brain hemispheres,is assumed to play an important role in cooperative intraspecific interactions.However,there are few studies focuse...
Lateralization of cognitive functions influences a large number of fitness-related behaviors and shows,in most species,substantial variation in strength and direction.Laboratory works and field data have suggested tha...

Asymmetries in bilateral organisms attract a lot of curiosity given that they are conspicuous departures from the norm.They allow the investigation of the integration at different levels of biological organization.Her...
Animal individuality is challenging to explain because individual differences are regulated by multiple selective forces that lead to unique combinations of characteristics.For instance,the study of personality,a core...
