Turning the Other Lobe: Directional Biases in Brain Diagrams by Richard Wiseman, Adrian M. Owen

“…This bias was present in images that did not contain any representation of a human head. It is argued that the effect might be aesthetic in nature, the result of the Western tradition of reading left to right or due to the facial factors that underlie the bias previously found in portraits.…”
