    • Combined fMRI region- and network-analysis reveal new insights of top-down modulation of bottom-up processes in auditory laterality 

      Kazimierczak, Katarzyna; Craven, Alexander R.; Ersland, Lars; Specht, Karsten; Dumitru, Magda L.; Sandøy, Lydia B.; Hugdahl, Kenneth (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-01-18)
      Dichotic listening along with the right-ear advantage (REA) has been a standard method of investigating auditory laterality ever since it was first introduced into neuropsychology in the early 1960s. Beginning in the 1980s, authors reported that it was possible to modulate the bottom-up driven perceptual REA by instructing subjects to selectively attend to and report only from the right or left ...
    • Sex- and sex hormone-related variations in energy-metabolic frontal brain asymmetries: A magnetic resonance spectroscopy study 

      Hjelmervik, Helene; Hausmann, Markus; Craven, Alexander R.; Hirnstein, Marco; Hugdahl, Kenneth; Specht, Karsten (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-01-31)
      Creatine is a key regulator of brain energy homeostasis, and well-balanced creatine metabolism is central in healthy brain functioning. Still, the variability of brain creatine metabolism is largely unattended in magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) research. In the human brain, marginal sex differences in creatine levels have been found in the prefrontal cortex. It is however not known to ...
