Brain differences between left and right handed

Brain differences between left and right handed

Are there differences in our brain depending on whether we are right or left handed? What determines what we write with the right or the left? We reveal below all the brain differences between left and right handed.
A long time ago those who wrote with the left hand were frowned upon, but today, left-handed people are considered people with artistic abilities that right-handed people could never have. But what is the truth? Is there any tangible difference between those who preferably use one hand for the other? Is there a difference in the left-handed and right-handed brains?
It is clear that there are behavioral differences between left-handed and right-handed people, but this is precisely because the use and movement of different hands is connected respectively to the two distinct cerebral hemispheres.
Therefore, we can say that there are brain differences between left-handed and right-handed people, since right-handed people are subject to greater stimulation of the left hemisphere, while left-handed people are the opposite.
From here we can then understand why, for example, left-handed people are better at sports or the arts, since the right hemisphere is more related to space vision tasks (something that athletes use a lot), as well as the ingenuity and creativity (artists).

On the other hand, trying to adapt to a world where right-handed people dominate, left-handers have also developed the ability to interact with both hemispheres of the brain to the point that left-handed people use their right hand better than right-handed people use left hand.
Left-handed and right-handed experiment
To conclude, we want to explain how an experiment conducted by the Max Planck Institute and the University of Pennsylvania has tried to shed light on the differences that would exist between us. In the study, several volunteers were asked to choose what type of products to buy, what people to hire for a certain job and what living things they considered most intelligent. Right-handed people tended to choose products, people and living beings that are on their right more frequently, while left-handed people were on their left.
According to this study it has been concluded that people can act more fluently from the dominant hand, and even choose good things unconsciously associated with their fluid side of space, that is, with the most dominant space (in based on their habit of writing) and in fact, it has been discovered that people also value good and evil compared to the way they use their hands.
In fact it was verified that the patients who had lost the mobility of the right hand continued to maintain the scheme indicated above and identified as good what was on the right while what was bad was located on the left, something that was the opposite for left handed but curiously, the patients who had lost the use of the right hand after having suffered damage in the left cerebral hemisphere did not maintain this pattern and became completely left-handed, even in the way of thinking, seeing and identifying things.
And not only this, in other experiments, the subjects were forced to wear a ski glove to inhibit the use of the preferred hand and the result was surprising: even so, the person wearing the glove radically changed the way of reasoning.
From this experiment, we can understand how deceptive is the thought that our ideas, our ways of seeing the world are immutable when it is enough to change hands and inhibit the regular functioning of our dominant to change the consideration of good and evil. Perhaps the mind is more malleable than we thought and it is without a doubt the brain that determines our actions and thoughts.
