Evaluación e intervención ante un caso de lateralidad cruzada. Caso único

Abstract

Laterality is one of the most complex neuropsychological processes to which human beings are subjected throughout their life cycle. Although this process can be developed correctly in most of the cases, it does not happen in all of them. 30% of the world population shows problems related to undefined laterality or cross dominance and therefore, they may present problems in learning to read and write, troubles with their body image, spatial and temporal awareness difficulties and problems with mental calculation. Thus, the aim of this single-case study is to analyse which are the components, that form laterality in children, identify which are the variables that modulate it and find out about the personal, family, social an educational consequences which have an effect on the subject’s life from a clinical point of view.
