In experiments on 13 cats a unilateral section of the brachii of inferior colliculi produced a stable interhemispheric asymmetry not only in the auditory system, but in other (vestibular, visual, somatic, olfactory) analysers as well, which led to a disturbance of adequate space perception. This was manifested in orienting reactions directed only to the side of brain lesion. Animals were no more able to distinguish between the right and left troughs either by spatial or by modal cues. A complete "disregard" by the animals of the trough contralateral to the side of lesion suggests a hemispheric lateralization of conditioned connections providing for an adequate direction of the animals' running.
