is it true that the left and right brain hemispheres are reversed in left handed people?

Question

Im talking here about the left hemisphere which controls logic and the right which controls creativity. Are these controls reversed in left handed people, so that the left controls creativity and the right controls logic?

Answer 1

No they are not reversed. You do know something though, left handed people tend to use their right hemisphere more, as opposed to right handed people, who are more analytical. Certain culture, like the japanese one for example, educates children and gets them used to being left-handed, precisely for that purpose, of making them more creative.

The hemispheres work like this - if you use your right hand and in general the right side of your body for various activities such as writing, painting, eating etc, then your left brain will be more active and therefore will develop more than the right side of the brain. The other way around for the left-handed people.

Answer 2

No, our brains are MOSTLY arranged about the same.
I once had a medical test to determine which side of my brain was dominant, turned out my left side was. A tube was run up through my body to my neck vein and then half of my brain was numbed by some substance and I was shown flash cards and asked questions. When the right side was numbed I could not talk and I saw pink. Being that my left side was dominant made sense to me because I am quite logical in my thinking and even sometimes do not talk alot.

Answer 3

i'm sixty two years previous and nevertheless do no longer understand if i'm left or good surpassed. My good hand and arm are a lot greater suitable so i take advantage of it to hammer or throw , yet my left hand is maximum suitable at writing , drawing , different small wonderful artwork. As for intelligence I in lots of cases experience smarter then human beings around me until eventually i choose their math or spelling skills.

Answer 4

Yes it is true. We left hand people seem to do everything the opposite way round to right hand people. We are very good at mental arithmetic and logic and creativity, and weaker in the things right hand people are good at. Funny ins't it. It is scientifically proven to be true.

Answer 5

We are just plain weird. We have a much harder time learning to eat, write, throw or catch a ball and scissors are a torment.. I don't know about the creativity and logic.

Answer 6

no i don`t think they`re reversed is it to do with which side is more dominant eg right side of the brain is more dominant in left handed people

Answer 7

I do not think so, however the Japanese have their brains reversed compared to the rest of the world for some reason!!!

Answer 8

im not so sure about this one. i think its just a preference of coordination in the motor cortex left vs right

Answer 9

That's how it was explained to me when I was studying Psychology and that being said,.............................................. does it therefore follow that only Left-handed people are in their Right minds?
