Description	In this study, we tried to calculate lateralization index (LI) in different ways in the same subjects, in order to find an LI calculation method with the highest correlation to the Wada test. The most significant correlation with WADA was proven in LIs evaluated from Broca's area. Generally, the new LI calculation methods used in the present study failed to yield a statistically significant benefit.
