The brain has its left and right hemispheres. Each side of the brain has its own unique and special abilities. The right side of the brain is intuitive, while the left side of the brain is logical.
Even
though both hemispheres of the brain have independent functions, an individual
benefits from the integration of the processing of information performed by
each side. The hemisphere best suited to perform the processing of information;
this allows an individual greater understanding and learning potential of the
situation that initiated the brain processing information.
Research has shown most people have
a dominant side of the brain. Individuals who are predominately left sided tend
to be more verbal, analytical, and problem solvers; while individuals who are
predominately right sided tend to be arty, good with math, and are more visual
in nature. Dominance goes into affect when thinking becomes increasingly more
complex . Although each hemisphere has its own set of functions in information
processing and thinking, research data supports the notion that these functions
are not exclusive to one hemisphere.
