Problems with the theory

On a biological level the left-brain/right-brain distinction is entirely bogus. It is true that certain areas
of the brain have different functions and that these areas are located in either the right or left
hemisphere, but their location has no significance for cognition (Nielsen, 2003). An analogy can be
drawn to the rest of the human body. For example, the heart is in the left side of the chest and the
liver is on the right side, but this does not mean that someone who does lots of cardio exercise
(making the heart work a lot) is a "left bodied" person while a person who drinks lots of alcohol
(making the liver work a lot) is a "right bodied" person.

Even ignoring the supposed biological underpinnings, the continuum of individual differences
described by the theory is not a very good one. There is low agreement between different people who
promote the distinction as to what the distinction actually is. The correlation between different scales
that are claimed by their developers to measure left-brain and right-brain thinking may in some cases
be as low as 0 (Genovese, 2005).

Can a person be more right than left "brained" while suffering from NLD? My right hemisphere
fails to distribute information to the rest of my brain, resulting in an Asperger's like disability.
Nonverbal communication? Forget it! I'm thinking cerebral hemisphere preference is, as stated,
bogus.

Good Day! I am currently conducting a research about the Left and Right-Brained Dominance.
May I have a permission to use this to determine if my respondents are either left-brained or right-
brained? Thank you for considering my favor.

Don't like the fact you put two questions together: Are these answers true and would you let us
use your responses. Yes, the answers are true, but no, I do not want you to use my results.
Putting these two together makes responders look like liars if they answer no.
