Neurocognitive anthropology: What are the options?
Behavioral and Brain Sciences 35 (4):243-244 (2012)
Abstract
Investigation of the cerebral organization of cognition in modern humans may serve as a tool for a better understanding of the evolutionary origins of our unique cognitive abilities. This commentary suggests three approaches that may serve this purpose: (1) cross-task neural overlap, referred to by Vaesen; but also (2) co-lateralization of asymmetric cognitive functions and (3) cross-functional (effective) connectivityOther Versions
