- Are you more right brained or left brained? And what does each side control? Music, memory and even survival instincts are controlled by neither side of the brain, but a harmonious balance of each.

I've come to a conclusion… I have no brain. Neither side works.
You sir deserve a like
Myles Poun thank you kind sir
Good one! :)
Beep Beep Lettuce Nice job youve failed life 😂

The best way to increase your brain power is not to focus on a single side, but to focus on the linking between them.
Cross-referencing experiences and making links between them.
Thats a solid answer but feel like the right of the brain is more self control and emotional intelligence
2:45 The idea of gun-wielding polar bears is terrifyng, yet the drawings are so cute!
We have a shitload of them in New Jersey
Glad you love the animation!
Magiver77 I told my little cousin that laser bears broke into my school and shot my foot with a laser and sprained my ankle
IKR WISH THEY ACTUALLY LOOKED LIKE CUTE LITTLE MARSHMELLOWSSSSS 😆
I was all with this video, tell she said gun weilding Polor bears.
I'm 90% sure than both my sides are 50/50.
i agree
Same here
I agree.
Same but in an asymmetrical balanced way
Yeh, sane here.

What if im a right handed but i use more my right side of the brain?
I am the left brain

the video was pretty straight forward. From what it covered, I use both hemispheres equally. I draw detailed artwork, calculate complex mathematics quickly in my head, communicate effectively in both written and spoken language, improv in iambic pentameter, and I'm extremely expressive both physically and while speaking. I remember addresses and phone numbers all the way back to age 3, as well as birth dates of everyone I've met, and social security numbers of my 4 children, both ex wives, and their driver license numbers. It's quite annoying at times.
Read about savants.
You are dangerous
Left is the I will remember and practice side which makes me really fast at doing things. The right is the I must understand how it works and how I will get there so that if I need to change it I can. Speed and accuracy is of no concern.
I am the left brain I am the left brain, I work real hard till my enviable death brain
*Oops....wrong video*
Precious X3 i like oreos and pussies! YES! in that order and i cry for an hour after watching toy story 3😂😂
Glad I wasn't the only one who thought of that :) I love Bo Burnham tho!
Precious X3 you got a job to do you better do it right
and the right way is with the left brain's might!
Precious X3 yay. im not the only one!
And I cry for at least an hour after watching Toy Story 3
I’m a live sound engineer and mix sound for concerts. This makes a lot of sense. When I’m working I turn my back away from the band/stage and it sounds WAY DIFFERENT! Try this, at your next concert, turn away from the music and notice the difference.
This was a good explanation & I was able to understand everything
Great video as always!
now days , with schools being closed , youre UA-cam Channel is inspiring
I want to take a similar initiative , Im so grateful I found your video
Keep up the great work! :D absolutely loved this video the most, even my little cousins watched with such great interest haha
bo burnham, anybody!??!
YASSS S I L A V H I M
What?
I LIKE OREOS AND P*SSY IN THAT ORDER
Brooklynn B yasss
I am the right brain, I LIKE ORRRRRRRRRRRREOS!
Who?
Video instructions unclear, left body side is paralyzed.
My not paralyzed side still enjoyed the video!
Left brain side.
The last part about damage was rather important. Being born with a damaged right hemisphere has shaped my entire life, and I keep running into situations where I think a healthy person would not have the issues I do.
Start to meditate my friend
Thank you for this wonderfully insightful video!
Has anyone here taken a course on brain lateralization? What are your thoughts? Feel free to request new videos or topics for us. In our last one, someone mentioned wanting one on sleep disorders that involved feeling like you're being watched. Let us know if you guys would like something like that!
I would like one on insomnia
how about how can you tell which side of brain you are???
@Lunakitti, we can do that! :) @We can put a quiz together for you! @Clara, what do you mean?
It`s possible for someone to have traits from both parts? I mean... I am ambidextrous and from the description I felt like I can relate to both but not entirely to one of them... I don`t know what to think when it comes to this topic.
Pretty much 99.9% people have all functions of both hemispheres, since both of hemispheres are talking between each other by a "connection" called _corpus callosum._
People can also pretty much learn to be ambidextrous, unless they only have one side of the brain. Then it's a bummer.
Personally I feel math is more of a right side than left. Maybe I just see math in a different way than most people
Contact me
I agree
Math is fun!
True I also agree
Even I.
this is soo awesome that you teach classes
Loved the video!
Informative and enjoyed it.
Amazing stuff 🤩🤯. Thank you 🙏.
"Widely Agreed upon" is not evidence of anything true. Many terribly wrongs things have been "widely agreed upon". Common myth is not knowledge
Daniel Burwell Right you are.
Daniel Burwell These conclusions came from case studies, not because some people felt like that’s how it happens
Its true ....you

This is really interesting to learn!
I don't think the differences are quite as definite and universal as this video suggests. I'm very strongly left-handed but I've always excelled at logical and detail-oriented work - I have a degree in physics and spent years working as a (self-taught) programmer, and I've never shown any real creative talent. Had a stroke in 2017 which wiped out a large part of my left hemisphere and left me comatose for a month. Due to the location and extent of the damage I was not expected to recover the ability to speak or understand speech. The neurologists reckoned that I was one of the fairly large percentage of left-handers whose speech handling areas are on the right rather than the left. The problems I've suffered from the stroke are mainly with numbness and weakness on the right, problems with balance and proprioception, and following rapid speech or complex plots in films, tv and books. All things which I had no problem with before the stroke. Otherwise my mental faculties are remarkably intact - seems that neuroplasticity is a near-magical thing, and the brain may not be as modular and compartmentalised as we think.
Thank you.
So to get the best of your brain you should practice with your non-dominant hand more to stimulate the non-dominant side of the brain because the hands are directly connect to the brain (as any other organs in your body).
she has a beautiful voice
So awesome!!
I think I'm slightly more right brained.? My desk looks like a tornado went through it because all it is is clustered up art supplies. I'm kinda creative.? And I'm mostly driven by emotion.
Thank you
I agree that I’m logical-
My art teacher always scold at me to be more creative 😭😭😭😭😭😭
Nice video 😊
1:42 HOW TF IS THIS SO ACCURATE.
I've always been artistic it's my passion but just a few years ago I was the victim of an assault which left me with TBI and I've become even more creative even though it's more of a challenge with the physical problems I've been left with, I'm also right handed so I'm not sure I go with this stuff.
I heard this was a myth, then i watched the video and thought hmmm maybe I was wrong, then i went through the comment section, definitely a myth.
Psych2Go, I took a test once during school and it came to that I was more left brained. After watching this video though I found that the the left side hardly matches me, but that it has equal parts from each side. Is it possible to be both?
Your voice is nice to listen to :)
Glad you enjoy! :)
Trilo i agree
Maybe but both SideS of my brain were pierCed by weird whiStling, happening with every 'S' and 'C' sound. Please @Psych2Go be more carefull with sound-tests!
Agreed.. I'd appreciate if she purchase a better microphone though
Except the fucking hissing!!!!
Whoa, when I take online quizzes they tell I use both sides equally but according to this video, all of the things I find difficult (turning ideas into words, turning details into a big picture, dealing with the cold, and fine motor skills when playing instruments) are all left brain things. And even though I'm right handed, I use my left eye way more than my right
is this true?? Because I have heard that this is a misconception and that we use both sides equally. We don't use one side more than the other. I am confused hahah.
Well, I'm really confused. At the the beginning of the video, you said, right is controlled by the left and vise versa. You're dominant side, and what side of the brain it is controlled by, is you're dominant side of the brain. Well, I'm right handed, but I've always based myself on creativity, rather than knowledge or the literal world. If you know why this is please tell me.
Actually, there's new evidence that we've had the two hemispheres reversed for quite a while now. This is coming from my cognitive science class just this past spring semester as an undergrad: the left is actually the creative side involving language production and narrative cohesion, whereas the right is the literal and factual details-oriented side. In other words, the left is philosophically minded while the right is mathematically minded.
where?
Gun wielding polar bears XDDDDD
So nobody is going to mention the gun wielding polar bear? Alright. 😂 Love your channel guys. I took AP Psych last year and this August I'll be starting my journey to become a child therapist, so it's good to watch these so I don't get too rusty before the semester starts.
I can think of pictures and words similarly easily, although some things are imbalanced to one of the 2 sides.
Our teacher made us watch this. It’s a good video so I came back to watch it again lol.
So how is this in my self?
1. I can raise the upper left of my lips
2. I can raise my right eyebrow
3. It is way more easier for me to blink my left eye rather than my right eye
4. And i am Right handed.
Is it normal?
And in my entire elementary years, my medals are all "Most Creative"
Not for being arogant here, but i'm just curious.
_reply_
Thank you, people with dyslexia is right brain focused, thinking more in abstract then logic. It is harded to comprehen linerar thinking for both myself and my partner.
I'm right, right?
I love Calculus and Physics, but I apply my creativity(drawing, playing an instrument, etc.) more everyday.
Left brain: basically my only working organ
Right brain: the father that left
Me: iM OkAy!
I'm most definitely left-brained ... you can actually see it in my avatar picture (MRI mirrors left & right).
And that's why I'm particularly interested in what deficits (or imbalances by the dominating left-side) I might have - you know, what to put more effort in, what's not worth the efforts etc...
Any concrete tips & advices would be very welcomed!
This was my biggest problem. Now I stop left nostril and inhale - exhale from right one to activate my left brain. I am improving.
how to heal/cure with it when it has "damage"?
I wonder if your brain can change dominance on wich side it focuses on. Or even if you could achieve the perfect balance and not have a dominant side.
Exactly my thought, I think my brain acts according to the situation present. Not sure which side is dominant. Anyhuuu I'll keep observing self
exactly! those who grow old and get both sides into the act are healthier than those who are stuck in habit
I'm a left brain because of the shoes color is gray and mint green.
Just saw on the post. 😊
Can you do a video on how to know if you're the left side or right side of the brain?
There is something wrong with my brain. I can seemlessly do all things with both my hands. However, when I get tired of doing something with one hand and switch to the other hand, I feel like a pop and I get dizzy for a second and then I can do whatever I was doing with the first hand with my other hand. I do not understand it.
Question: as a child I was left-handed and so I think my right-side should be dominant, but I've been forced to use my right hand which is now dominant... how's it impacting on the brain functions (aside of the weird pen-holding way) if you didn't do a video on this already ?
That's a great question. Researchers are still determining if there's a real link between your handedness and your brain dominance. "For over 150 years, many researchers have been trying to figure out this robust-but-imperfect correlation between handedness and brain lateralization." www.indiana.edu/~primate/brain.html. In short, it probably doesn't have an impact.
Psych2Go Thnx a lot for having taken the time to answer me 😄
my friend test me which brain i uses more. she asked me some questions and some i answer right, some i answer wrong....she said i use both more.
I'm right handed but I'm definitely more right brained. Although I can logically think too and have trouble with creativity sometimes I'm not good with words either. Tbh i relate to both...
im right handed but feel more right brained
Ahhh... I spent hours constantly over analalysing my behaviour to figure out which brain hemisphere is dominant I'm dying pls...
Also this reminds me of matpat's undertale theories..
i use both sides of my brain equally. maybe it has something to do with being ambidextrous. i cant remember if handedness and brain-side usage are connected or not though
Look on the bright side the fact that you can still identify the cause of your problem gives me hope, any one else show/raise of hands or likes? obviously it has to mean you’re in the category of (Hippocampus).
This explains a gap in communication between people of opposing hemispheric dominance . Sure glad I'm the right one ; seriously though we need integration of both to evolve . ( suggest checking out a book by Julian Jaynes " The Origins of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind " )
U r amazing
bo burnham anyone?
If I use my right hand to write but my left hand is stronger for whatever reason, then which hemisphere do I use more (and which is my dominant hand?)?! 🤔
I *_really_* doubt this left/right brain hemisphere idea is true.
It's more about the lateralization and how certain functions sit more on one side or the other. But you definitely use both sides.
It sounds pretty biological, which isn’t really something you would argue with unless you know that much
It's basically the functions on each side
It’s ironic that I use both sides constantly but both sides also follow the rules of being damaged. I haven’t been subjected to traumatic brain injury. Maybe ptsd symptoms but idk
How do you make a video like this?
You had me at "gun-wielding polar bears".
Ah.. Jacob (right) and Esau (left).
Conscious (left) and subconscious (right).
Adam (left) and Eve (right)
Ego (left) and super ego (right).
Up=right and down=left.
Correlate.
How can we become more dominate in a different hemisphere, or work out the other side?
Firstname Lastname yeah i need to become dominant in my left side
Just came to know that I am half left brained and half right brained... is that even possible?😂
I am confused. I am very logical but I also spend lots of time creating boxes in my mind and estimating their size
The theory is wrong. You can be both logical and creative.
You say when the left brain is damaged you only focus on the larger parts of vision?
And your speech is off?
And when tour right brain is damaged/overworked you lose the desire to create, and want to die?
So quick question, if you haven't been sleeping properly can this put a similar effect on the brain? Because...I haven't slept in a week I am weak I am awake.(hamiltonreferance) And these symptoms apply to me.
P.S. How do you tell which one you are? Does that picture of the green/gray or pink/white mean anything? I see green/gray by the way.
So what you're telling me is salads can be enjoyed warm?
How can I develop both sides of my brain ?
I was going to be left side dominant but hen broke my left wrist as an infant, and I’m now right handed. I don’t know how to interpret this, help!
3:40 At first I thought you said "work on both sides of your nugget."
I’m right sided bust apparently realizing that is called a “psychotic break” tf
Is it possible to have a 50/50 balance for these neurological functions? I feel like I'm creative, emotional, sensitive, and spontaneous but can also be analytical, rational, aloof and arrogant... currently questioning myself
Yeah it's all relative.
I’m not sure which I’m more of. I want to pursue art and language/literature and I’m in marching band, but math’s also a subject I enjoy. Hate science though that gets dull.
Both of the sides of mine work so fast but right is faster and dominant.
My right side is over working and you got the rest
Which side brain I use don't know.
It is more confusing for me.
I'm left hand person. I write with left hand, throw ball with left hand but when eat I use my right hand, I work for an electronic company and I Handel tool with both hand it doesn't effect my work if I use right hand.
I'm good at drawing and painting
But still I'm good at learning languages. I learn English all by my self. Math is not my fav though. But I love to dive into the science and logic.
I have a question, so do you realize when you over work a side of your brain?
I am right brained and right handed. Does anyone knows what it means? I have heard that the right brain controls left side of the body and vica versa but in my case its the same.
What if I’m physically right mentally left but also clinically anxious and clinically depressed?
That's why left handed is so good at Arts
Woah! Im balance, means i use both left and right dominant
I need more information about the brain for my lesson, that's why I'm here ,
We gotta work on the two sides to improve our brains power, and so that would be by learning things that helps in the 2 sides..
Though I think i am a left brain.
Does introversion-extroversion is related to our brain's lateralization?
Good question, but so far, we haven't come across research that suggest it might. Introversion and extroversion has more to do with a personality trait and there hasn't been much research about parts of the brains that control that.
Ok. Thanks for the answer! 😁
I’m left handed and left handed controllers are connected on to the right Brian side, and I am on the right side cuz I think I am very creative and bright
Somehow EVERYTHING you said about left AND right fits for me...
