homotopic

Examples

• All

• If two paths can be continuously transformed into one another without leaving a defined space, they are said to be homotopic.

• So that will give the the two faces, front and back are homotopic, they're the same.

• However, the essence of his idea lies in the notion of a homotopic inhibitory mechanism of callosal interaction between the hemispheres.

• The model develops the notion of homotopic callosal inhibition to account for differential specialization of the hemispheres for detail and context in language processing.

• Cook (1986) has argued that structural asymmetries between the hemispheres are relatively minor, and that functional asymmetries are largely generated through homotopic inhibition.

• The model employs the neurophysiological mechanism of homotopic callosal inhibition to explain recent findings, which suggest that the left hemisphere processes denotative meaning, while the right hemisphere specializes in connotative meaning.

• This permits the posited asymmetrical flow of processing to commence, in which inhibitory influences first affect the surrounding areas in the left hemisphere and the homotopic areas of the right hemisphere, followed by disinhibition of the neural space around the homotopic areas in the right hemisphere.
