HI strazza,

Start by taking a look at this wikipedia article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laterality

It gives you some useful terms you can use to look up research papers in google to give you more background information. You can also try finding some of the papers listed in the references section of the wikipedia article.

Also take a look at our advanced project guide. We have sections about how to find and read research papers on a topic:
