Figure 2.12 | Sample Hierarchical Stimulus and Recall Results for Such Stimuli by Brain-Damaged Patients | (a) The sample hierarchical stimulus is a capital H made up of little As. (b) Patients with right hemisphere damage (dependent on the left hemisphere) could remember the details of the hierarchical stimulus (the As) but not the overall pattern (H). (c) Patients with left hemisphere damage (dependent upon the right hemisphere) could remember the overall pattern (H) but not its details (the As).
