摘要: Abstract Animals tend to treat left-right mirror images as though they were equivalent, and thus find it difficult discriminate them. We present an analysis of data originally reported by Noble which suggests that this difficulty is abolished in monkeys following section the a anterior commissure. The commissure may be responsible for process interhemispheric mirror-image reversal, whereby memory traces reversed transfer between inferotemporal cortices. This reversal underlie equivalence normal animals.
