Aresearch participant undergoing the dichotic listening task hears the syllable "pa" in her right ear and the syllable "ga" in the left ear, at the same time. if she is right-hemisphere dominant for language, which syllable is she likely to report hearing?

ga

Explanation:

             The dichotic listening test is done to diagnosed the hemispheric lateralization  of the brain for speech and sound perception. In this test, the investigator sends two different messages to the patient's left ear and right ear simultaneously at the same time and the patient id asked to repeat message he hears.

             Our brain is a complex thing. It has two hemispheres -- the right hemisphere and the left hemisphere. The left hemisphere of the brain primarily controls the right part of our body and the right hemisphere of the brain is responsible for the functioning of the left part of the body.

            Here in the example, the participant heard the syllable "pa" in her right ear and "ga" in her left ear. The participant is right-hemisphere dominant for language and so she will report hearing the "ga" syllable which she heard at her left ear.

Thus the answer is ---

ga
