Is Joe really left-handed? Because if he can't draw at all with his left hand, then wouldn't contralaterality suggest that when a word/picture flashes to the left of the dot, Joe can't identify it at all? Whatever you see to the left of the focus point is process in your right hemisphere, which consequently controls the left side of your body

Not necessarily, 70% of southpaws still show left hemisphere dominance.

I got told to search for something like this by my psychology teacher and i can't stop watching them all, they're absolutely fascinating and make Sperry's idea so real, i'm just forever awed by such subjects and experiments.

This is excellent for my A2 studies of Psychology, and of course, when I go on to pursue my degree in this subject. Very insightful, I now understand this much better than before previously watching.

I saw a similar video in my psych class where someone who had seperated hemispheres was really angry with someone. He went to hit the person with his right brain controlled left hand, and his left brain controlled right hand reached over and stopped his left hand from striking the person.

I'd like to find that one again!
