The lateralization of brain function (or hemispheric dominance [1] [2] / lateralization [3] [4]) is the tendency for some neural functions or cognitive processes to be specialized to one side of the brain or the other.
The reasons for this are not fully understood, but it is thought that because the left cerebral hemisphere of the brain controls the right side of the body, the right side is generally stronger; it is suggested that the left cerebral hemisphere is dominant over the right in most humans because in 90–92% of all humans, the left hemisphere is ...
The left hemisphere is associated with language and calculations, while the right hemisphere is more closely associated with visual-spatial recognition and facial recognition. This lateralization of brain function results in some specialized regions being only present in a certain hemisphere or being dominant in one hemisphere versus the other ...
b) The right hemisphere is dominant in emotional expression in a similar way that the left hemisphere is dominant in language. c) The right hemisphere is dominant in the perception of facial expression, body posture, and prosody. d) The right hemisphere is important for processing primary emotions such as fear while the left hemisphere is ...
A 2017 image of a sneaker that recently resurfaced falsely claims to show which side of your brain is more dominant depending on the color you see.
The hypothesis posits there are sex differences in cognitive abilities by relating them to lateralisation of brain function. [1] The maturation rates of cerebral hemispheres differ and are mediated by circuiting testosterone levels, which are substantially influenced during the foetal and post-puberty development stages.

Ned Herrmann described dominance of a particular thinking style with dominance with a portion of a brain hemisphere. [7] The notion of hemisphere dominance attracted some criticism from the neuroscience community, notably by Terence Hines who called it "pop psychology" based on unpublished EEG data.
The last image we have of Patrick Cagey is of his first moments as a free man. He has just walked out of a 30-day drug treatment center in Georgetown, Kentucky, dressed in gym clothes and carrying a Nike duffel bag.
