2. Lateralization of brain function - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lateralization_of_brain...

   The concept of "right-brained" or "left-brained" individuals is considered a widespread myth which oversimplifies the true nature of the brain's cerebral hemispheres (for a recent counter position, though, see below). Proof leading to the "mythbuster" of the left-/right-brained concept is increasing as more and more studies are brought to light.

3. Herrmann brain dominance instrument - Wikipedia

   Herrmann offered creativity workshops based on leveraging all the quadrants within the Whole Brain Model, rather than focusing on physiological attributes. strengthening particular thinking styles and strengthening the right hemisphere, which received critiques that creativity is not localized to a particular thinking style nor to a particular ...

4. Left–right confusion - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Left–right_confusion

   The Bergen Left–Right Discrimination (BLRD) test is designed to measure individual performance in LRD accuracy. However, this test has been criticized for incorporating tasks that require the use of additional strategies, such as mental rotation (MR). [10]

5. Spinning dancer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spinning_Dancer

   In popular psychology, the illusion has been incorrectly [6] identified as a personality test that supposedly reveals which hemisphere of the brain is dominant in the observer. Under this wrong interpretation, it has been popularly called the "right brain–left brain test", [7] and was widely circulated on the Internet during late 2007 to ...

6. Brain asymmetry - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brain_asymmetry

   The left and right hemispheres are associated with different functions and specialize in interpreting the same data in different ways, referred to as lateralization of the brain. The left hemisphere is associated with language and calculations, while the right hemisphere is more closely associated with visual-spatial recognition and facial ...

7. Cerebral hemisphere - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cerebral_hemisphere

   Broad generalizations are often made in popular psychology about certain functions (e.g. logic, creativity) being lateralized, that is, located in the right or left side of the brain. These claims are often inaccurate, as most brain functions are actually distributed across both hemispheres.

8. Contralateral brain - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contralateral_brain

   Consequently, the left side of the forebrain mostly represents the right side of the body, and the right side of the brain primarily represents the left side of the body. The contralateral organization involves both executive and sensory functions (e.g., a left-sided brain lesion may cause a right-sided hemiplegia).

9. Left-brain interpreter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Left-brain_interpreter

   The explanations generated by the left-brain interpreter may be balanced by right brain systems which follow the constraints of reality to a closer degree. [ 4 ] [ 11 ] The suppression of the right hemisphere by electroconvulsive therapy leaves patients inclined to accept conclusions that are absurd but based on strictly-true logic.
