science experiment on the brain? Yes! This experiment gets inside your head and makes some revealing determinations! You've heard of being right or left handed
but how about left or right brained? Are you left brained or right brained? Left
brain people tend to be logical
adidas nmd chukka for sale , sequential, rational and analytical. They are usually objective and tend to look at small parts. Right brain people on the
other hand are more random and intuitive. They are holistic, synthesizing,
subjective, and tend to look at the whole instead of the parts. This
left-brained, right-brained or hemispheric theory of the mind suggests that the
two different sides of the brain control two different "modes" of thinking. It
also suggests that each of us prefers one mode over the other. If this theory
holds true it may explain why people look at and do things in different ways.
Many of us have a preference for one of these styles of thinking. While others
are more "whole-brained" being equally adept at both modes. Most schools favor
left-brain modes of thinking
adidas nmd human race for sale , while downplaying the right-brain ones. Left-brainers focus on logical thinking, analysis, and accuracy. Right-brained
subjects focus on aesthetics and feeling. Which one are you? Left or right? Are
you better at art, video games, or sports? Are you a good dancer? The things we
like to do and what we are good at are often because of how our brain works.
Ultimately, this has an effect on how the body and brain work together. For
example
adidas nmd triple black for sale , some people are well coordinated while other people tend to be clumsy. This left-brain, right-brain theory provides a
wonderful opportunity to conduct a great science experiment! Try this experiment
on yourself, family and friends. You'll find out more about why you and others
do what the things they do. The experiment is a two step process and is easy to
conduct; it's basic observation and noting experiment results. Your subjects
will answer a few questions and perform a few simple movements which you will
carefully observe. For part one, ask them these questions and write down their
answers: 1. When you enter a theater which side do you prefer; A. left or B.
right? 2. What style of test question do you like; A. truefalse or B.
discussion? 3. Do you have hunches; A. no or B. yes? 4. Are you A. neat or B.
sloppy? 5. When learning to dance is it easier to A. follow the teacher, or B.
feel the music? 6. Can you tell time without a watch; A. no or B. yes? 7. Which
is easier for you; A. specific details or B. main ideas? If your subjects
answered most questions with the "A" answer, they are likely left-brained. If
most of your answers were "B"
adidas nmd r1 primeknit for sale , they are probably right-brained. But the experiment is not yet complete. For the part two of the science experiment
you'll ask your subjects to do these simple movements to determine hand
dominance, foot dominance, eye dominance, and ear dominance. This is where the
experiment gets interesting since right hand actions are actually controlled by
the left side of the brain and left hand actions are controlled by the right
side of the brain. We'll go into this in more detail when we tally the results.
For now ask your subjects to perform these actions: Hand Dominance -- Ask your
subjects to write their name, cut a piece of paper in half, throw a
ball
adidas nmd ireland , eat with a fork and finally, take a drink of water. Note which hand they used for each action. Foot Dominance -- Ask your subjects to
kick a ball, step up three steps, and finally, step onto a coin on the floor.
Note which foot they use for each action. Eye Dominance -- Ask your subjects to
look through a tube at a distant object. Ask them to look through a hole cut out
of a piece of paper. Note the eye used for each action. Ear Dominance - Tell
your subject you want to whisper something in their ear; note which ear they
offer you. Time to tally the hand dominance, foot dominance
adidas consortium nmd ireland , eye dominance, and ear dominance results. Remember that actions are controlled by the opposite side of the brain. In other
words, left side actions are controlled by the right side of the brain and right
side actions are controlled by the left side of the brain. So if your subject
used their right ear to listen, you would write down the left side of the brain
for that action. If your subject used their left hand to write, you would write
down the right side of the brain for that action. Compare the answers from part
one with the results from part two. How many left-brainers were there? How many
right-brainers? Do you have any who fit in both categories? If so, these are
whole-brainers. Some people believe that the hemispheric brain theory is
non-sense. They believe that most people use both sides of the brain at all
times rather than using just one side of the brain at a time. They believe that
to solve complicated problems such as a math problem you use both sides of the
brain -- the logical and the creative side. So
adidas ultra boost ireland , if we use both brains all the time - at the same time - how could we prefer one side over the other as the hemispheric brain
theory suggests? What do you believe? Are your right-brained subjects more
creative type people? Are your left-brained subjects more analytical type
people? Perhaps the answer to the theory lies in the results of your science
experiment. Author's Resource Box Mort Barish is co-founder of Terimore
