TL;DR
It is shown that dichotically presented nonsense syllables with strict acoustic and phonetic control of the stimuli, generate a right ear advantage that is essentially fixed by 5 years of age.
Abstract
We have shown that dichotically presented nonsense syllables with strict acoustic and phonetic control of the stimuli, generate a right ear advantage that is essentially fixed by 5 years of age. What seems to change with age in our sample is total accuracy, phonetic content and nature of the errors, and something for want of a better term we might call "capacity" of the hypothesized left hemisphere speech processor.

Analysis of correct responses and errors showed that consonant features are processed independently, in agreement with the cerebral hemisphere dominant for language.

The greater left-ear scores for nonverbal stimuli suggests that cerebral lateralization for such auditory functions may be present by age five, and male superiority on a nonverbal task was also found with nondichotic presentation of Animal Sounds.

Dichotic listening performance was investigated in 234 children in grades 2, 4, and 6, and girls showed the adult pattern of ear dominance earlier than boys, and the relation between laterality effects and reading ability was investigated.

It was found that when one of the CV's trailed the other by 30–60 msec, the trailing CV became more intelligible than when it was given simultaneously; the leading syllable's intelligibility dropped from its “simultaneous” level when leading by 15 and 30 msec.

There was no significant difference between sexes on the test, although at age four girls showed the greatest mean difference relative to boys, and a preference to report the right ear first was observed for middle socioeconomic level children.

In group age 3, gils are superior to boys on both dichotic and monaural separation abilities but there is no difference between boys and girls in the older age groups.

Comparing preoperative and postoperative scores, it is seen that postoperatively there is additional degradation of contralateral ear scores and enhanced ipsilateral ear function in dichotic listening.
