Semantic priming and neurobiology in schizophrenia: A theoretical review
2021, NeuropsychologiaCitation Excerpt :The authors interpreted those results as reflecting mesocortical left-sided depletion (see also Early et al., 1989). Alternatively or complementary, others have suggested a right-sided mesocortical hyperdopaminergia (Bracha, 1987). Further support for lateralised dopaminergic abnormalities could be derived from studies that observed right hemispatial inattention, as well as left turning biases, in acute psychotic patients and schizotypes (Harvey et al., 1993; Brugger and Graves, 1997; Bracha et al., 1993); turning biases tend to favour the hypodopaminergic side, though this is typically associated with the striatum.

2019, Pharmacology Biochemistry and BehaviorCitation Excerpt :This asymmetrical behavior may also be noticed in schizophrenic patients: an increase of dopamine in the left amygdala in comparison with the right one was observed using post mortem brain samples from these patients (Reynolds, 1983). It was also reported that, while normal subjects exhibited no clear turning preference, a manifest left circling preference was observed in untreated schizophrenic patients suggesting a dopaminergic asymmetry in brain areas that control motor behavior in these patients (Bracha, 1987). However, neither neuroleptic chronic treatment nor the addition of dopaminergic agonists demonstrated a significant left or right turning behavior in these schizophrenic patients (Levine et al., 1997).
