Not all analogies are created equal: Associative and categorical analogy processing following brain damageGwenda L Schmidt
Department of Psychology, Hope College, 35 E 12th St, Holland, MI 49423, USA
Neuropsychologia 50:1372-9. 2012..We argue that categorical relations additionally rely on the right hemisphere because they are more difficult, abstract, and fragile, and contain more distant relationships...
Absence of M100 source asymmetry in autism associated with language functioningGwenda L Schmidt
Department of Radiology, Children s Hospital of Philadelphia, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA
Neuroreport 20:1037-41. 2009..An association was found between language functioning and the degree of asymmetry across the two groups of children, suggesting a possible relationship between functional-structural asymmetry and language ability...
Neural correlates of metaphor processing: the roles of figurativeness, familiarity and difficultyGwenda L Schmidt
Department of Psychology, Colorado State University, Fort Collins, Colorado, USA
Brain Cogn 71:375-86. 2009..We conclude that the right hemisphere is involved in metaphor processing and that the factors of figurativeness, familiarity and difficulty are important in determining neural recruitment of semantic processing...

University of Pennsylvania, Center for Cognitive Neuroscience, Philadelphia, PA 19104, USA
J Int Neuropsychol Soc 16:1-5. 2010..Finally, we outline a plausible model for the neural basis of metaphor. (JINS, 2009, 16, 1-5.)...
From novel to familiar: tuning the brain for metaphorsEileen R Cardillo
Department of Neurology, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, PA 19143, USA
Neuroimage 59:3212-21. 2012..Metaphor conventionalization entails a decreased neural load within semantic networks rather than a hemispheric or regional shift across brain areas...
