Everyone knows that the hemisphere of the human brain is customary to divide on rational and emotional. Like, the left is responsible for logical processes, and the right – for feelings and creative abilities, and both hemispheres are constantly in strong opposition to to each other. Moreover, many individuals allegedly dominated by or another hemisphere, so most people are divided into rationalists and intuitionists.
American scientist conducted a thorough study and found out that the division of the central nervous system of a person into two different, little dependent on each other (mathematical and creative) the hemisphere is one of the most common misconceptions. At the same time, official science does not even try to refute him, which is very similar to her.

Jeffrey Anderson, working at the University of Utah, found more than a thousand volunteers and analyzed the work of their brain. The specialist found that the responsibility for feelings and logic lies in each hemisphere equally. In other words, on this According to the hemisphere are no different from each other, and each of they are responsible for both emotions and rational thinking. Neither one of the participants in the experiment, despite the features of his character, not demonstrated in any one of the brain hemispheres have stronger connections than in the other.
The scientist explains: “Of course, many people have clearly pronounced emotional or rational perception of the world. Alone guided by logic and cold common sense, others act by intuition and improvise more. However, to me and my colleagues managed to prove that the left and right functions cerebral hemispheres it has nothing to do. Explain it with scientific point of view, most likely impossible. ”
Anderson also managed to find out where the legs of this myths. Jeffrey believes that the world has pushed for such an error famous american neuropsychologist Roger Sperry who divided the hemispheres of the human brain based on their functions, having received the Nobel Prize for this work in 1981. Nonetheless, the idea to call these departments sensitive and rational belongs, apparently a popular psychology that doesn’t have the most direct attitude to science.
