  • This theory is interesting, however, you should know that the right-left brain thing is a myth. In fact, everyone uses both. The right/left brain myth resulted from split-brain research in the 60s, and is now largely rejected. People and their brains cannot be characterized or caricatured as right and left brainers. This generalization is now seen as a primitive form of simplistic labeling, or phrenology (which is a defunct science and has been for a long time).

  • @AmberJorr Study of the Human brain is still in its earliest stages of understanding. There is so much to learn and know in this science. And It is true that some have attempted to prove that right and left brain dominance is junk science but on the other hand many scientists today are still establishing the validity of the earlier research that left and right hemispheres of the brain have dominate capabilities.

  • The simple fact that personalities have been categorized into very understandable differences for thousands of years can best be described using the science of hemisphere dominances along with hemispheres having different problem solving methods. Yes the brain is very plastic and can resource both hemispheres for similar results but in the end research can not determine why the brain prioritizes a dominate hand nor can it establish were personalities come from.

  • You should watch "RSA Animate - The Divided Brain". That is how the brain is divided, not as you described.

  • Great presentation! As a certified DiSC trainer with a decade experience of presenting these concepts, I especially found it interesting and useful. I'll have to dig a bit deeper, though, on all this good stufff... Though most of the stuff matches the DiSC (or DISC) theories.
