Different types of functional asymmetries, which form individual laterality profiles, were compared with the use of a battery of sensorimotor and cognitive laterality tests (TOPOS), the Benziger thinking style assessment (BTSA) test, the Cattell 17PF test, and psychosemantic multidimensional scaling. The proportion of men was shown to be higher among individuals with the left-side, symmetrical, and intersecting motor laterality profiles. Men with a dominant left leg or without asymmetry in the profile were more frequent than women, whereas women prevailed among persons with a dominant left eye. Different laterality profiles were obtained for different factors of the Cattell test. Comparison of the sensorimotor laterality and the BTSA data showed that more than half of persons with the left-hemispheric sensorimotor profile prefer right-hemispheric cognitive strategies. The results suggest that lateralities of different types may be nonuniform.
The astonomical consequences of recently developed theoretical methods of relativistic astrometry are discussed. The set of practically important reference systems is described. These reference systems generalize the locally inertial frames of general relativistic test observer, the hierarchy of Jacoby coordinates for dynamical problems and the dynamically inertial reference systems of fundamental astrometry. In practical application of this formalism much attention is paid for relativistic transformation functions relating the ∗∗ecliptical coordinates corresponding to the baryecnters of the Solar system, the Earth-Moon subsystem and the Earth. Solutions to several kinds of relativistic precession are also presented.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
