TL;DR: It is suggested that two opposite tendencies occur in braindamaged epileptic patients: a tendency towards shortening of RT as a consequence of epileptic discharges, and a tendency away from lengthening of RT a consequences of a severe brain lesion.

Responses to dichotic listening tasks in temporal epileptics with or without clinically evident lesions.
A. Mazzucchi,M. Parma +1 more
TL;DR: Dichotic listening was studied in two groups of temporal epileptics with monolateral circumscribed EEG focus: the first presenting with signs of brain damage and the second free from these signs.

Hemispheric prevalence changes in partial epileptic patients on perceptual and attentional tasks.
TL;DR: It is concluded that, with respect to the functions tested, the nature of the epileptic foci seems to influence markedly the interhemispheric prevalence pattern.

Hemispheric specialization in children with unilateral epileptic focus, with and without computed tomography-demonstrated lesion.
TL;DR: Evaluated 24 testable children with unilateral epileptic foci, with and without radiologically demonstrable lesions, to determine if the normal pattern of cerebral dominance is changed by the presence of an epileptic focus.

Influence of neurological factors on the personality profile of patients with temporal lobe epilepsy
TL;DR: The results ruled out a significant role for single parameters in affecting the personality profile of patients with temporal lobe epilepsy, and the most significant findings involve whether or not the patients show an atrophic lesion on the temporal lobe.
