Development of test batteries for diagnostics of motor laterality manifestation : link between cerebellar dominance and hand performance /
The aim of this book is focused on better understanding of laterality phenomenon and its evaluation. All informations are presented in sense to contribute to to the standardization of the new diagnostic tools assessing the motor manifestations of laterality in adolescence and adults aged 18-60 and c...
