FOUR LOBES OF THE BRAIN
RIGHT AND LEFT BRAIN
The cerebral cortex of the brain is divided into four sections. First, there is the Frontal Lobe of the brain associated with reasoning, motor skills, higher level cognition, and expressive language. Second, there is the Parietal Lobe associated with processing tactile sensory information such as pressure, touch, and pain. Another, is the Temporal Lobe important for interpreting sounds and the language we hear. And the final is the Occipital Lobe associated with interpreting visual stimuli and information. The primary visual cortex, which receives and interprets information from the retinas of the eyes, is located in the occipital lobe.
Right and Left brain are different in some ways. According to the theory of left-brain or right-brain dominance, each side of the brain controls different types of thinking. The right side of the brain is best at expressive and creative tasks. Some of the abilities popularly associated with the right side of the brain include: recognizing faces, expressing emotions, creating music, reading emotions, apreciating colors, using imagination, being creative. But the left-side of the brain is considered to involve logic, language, and analytical thinking. Some of the abilities popularly associated with the left side of the brain include: language, logic, critical thinking, numbers, reasoning.
LEFT AND RIGHT BRAINERS
Left and right brained people are different in some ways. Typical left-brainers are goal-orientated and well organised, critical thinkers and they are rarely absent-minded. They don’t let feelings get in the way when making decisions and like to do things in an orderly fashion. They are very realistic, logical and precise and they LOVE a spreadsheet! Science and technology, logistics and engineering are just a few of the sectors where you will find a lot of left-brainers. However, Right-brainers can be disorganised, unpredictable and more often than not, very good with people. They are spontaneous, creative and more emotional than left-brainers, often pondering and acting on their feelings. They are intuitive, good at problem solving and more comfortable with the unknown. Excel is NOT their friend! Design, people services and marketing are industries that tend to attract the right-brained folk of the world.
