Thus, she was no consciously aware of seeing the film. However, she said i don"t know why but i"m kind of scared: thus, the fear was felt and could be spoken about by the left hemi. Fear had been processed by the unsplit subcortical regions which have then comm"d to the left but w/o any indication of what had caused the fear: appraisal : the eval process, implied by gazzinga"s patient. It is automatic, something like a reflex at the beginning and need have nothing to do with lang.
