The findings in this regard have clarified the current conception about the knowledge of the hemispheric function and its impact on mental flexibility, attention and information processing.

La noción de lateralidad se encuentra relacionada con aquellas investigaciones y estudios sobre los aspectos cognitivos de las personas zurdas y diestras. Los hallazgos al respecto han esclarecido la concepción actual sobre el conocimiento de la función hemisférica y su impacto en la flexibilidad mental, la atención y el procesamiento de la información. La presente revisión tiene como objetivo brindar un panorama actualizado sobre la especialización hemisférica y su relación con los aspectos relacionados como el ambidextrismo, la lateralidad, la memoria, el lenguaje, la emoción, el procesamiento de información holística y focalizada, el aspecto musical, la creatividad, el pensamiento divergente, la etiología de la zurdera, el bilingüismo y la complementariedad cognitiva. Las conclusiones muestran que si bien los hemisferios cerebrales encontrándose físicamente divididos, muestran especializaciones en tareas cognitivas coordinadas en una participación complementaria.
