The purpose of the present study was to examine hemispheric differences in visual recogni-tion of two kanji letters. Kanji phrases and nonsense kanji letters were presented unilaterally to the left or right visual hemifield in thirty normal right-handed men by a tachistoscope. The experiments were separated into three conditions ; the mixing task (ten phrases and ten sets of nonsense letters are presented by mixture), the phrase task (twenty phrases are presented), and the nonsense letters task (twenty sets of nonsense letters are presented). Under all conditions, significant right visual hemifield superiorities for the accuracy of recognition of phrase and nonsense letters were observed.
