“…This advantage is proposed to be equivalent to the one enjoyed by left-sided items in a horizontal arrangement of visually or haptically presented stimuli [Bradshaw, Nathan, Nettleton, Wilson, & Pierson (1987): rod centering] and referred to, alternatively, as "initial exploration asymmetry" (Ebersbach et al, 1996;Hättig, 1992), "left-side underestimation" (Bradshaw, Nettleton, Nathan, & Wilson, 1983), "right hemispatial inattention" (Weintraub & Mesulam, 1988) or "pseudoneglect" (Bowers & Heilman, 1980). Pseudoneglect along the mental number line was originally demonstrated in the bisection of numerical intervals (Oliveri et al, 2004). Its magnitude is sometimes influenced by the same factors that also determine the magnitude of attentional asymmetries in physical space (Longo & Lourenco, 2007), but Doricchi et al did not find a relationship between visual and number line bisection (Doricchi et al, 2009).…”
