Janet suffers from severe epileptic seizures that are untreatable with medicine. Her doctor decides to perform a callostomy (severing of the corpus callosum). Following surgery, her neuropsychologist conducts some tests to assess the effects of the surgery. During a divided visual field study, Janet is flashed words to both of her visual fields and asked to read the words. When some of the images are flashed, Janet experiences difficulty stating the word that was flashed. Explain which visual field presentation likely causes Janet the most difficulty when asked to state the word that was flashed and why.
