“…These asymmetry changes, recorded in a respective context, index the individual’s capability to effectively process the specific demands and, consequently, may be indicative of traits related to psychological health and well-being (see also Allen & Reznik, 2015 ; Beeney, Levy, Gatzke-Kopp, & Hallquist, 2014 ; Cole, Zapp, Nelson, & Perez-Edgar, 2012 ; Goodman, Rietschel, Lo, Costanzo, & Hatfield, 2013 ; Liu, Sarapas, & Shankman, 2016 ; Papousek, Reiser, et al., 2013 , 2014 ; Pérez-Edgar, Kujawa, Nelson, Cole, & Zapp, 2013 ; Stewart, Coan, Towers, & Allen, 2014 ). More generally, several studies indicated functional deficits when brain circuits that are associated with these functions were inadequately activated, and that lateralized activation of specific relevant brain regions was linked to better performance on associated tasks (Davidson, Chapman, Chapman, & Henriques, 1990 ; Gur et al., 1994 , 2000 ; Gur & Reivich, 1980 ; Papousek, Murhammer, & Schulter, 2011 ; Papousek & Schulter, 2004 ; Wendt & Risberg, 1994 ). The capability model represents one of several important advancements of prefrontal brain asymmetry research that in part may be hampered by too simplistic approaches such as the reliance on resting data (see Miller, Crocker, Spielberg, Infantolino, & Heller, 2013 for a critical review).…”
