"The finding of the present study [...] documenting right lip asymmetry in ANS [11, 12], which is generally assumed to be a corollary of the left cerebral specialization for speech execution [19]. In contrast, a left lip bias was found for AS and would appear to suggest that speech motor execution involves right hemisphere activation in this group of speakers."
