Question 1 Given what we know about localization of function in the human brain‚ is it scientifically legitimate to categorize people as left-brained or right-brained?

Sperry (1965)‚ ascribes to the specialization of one cerebral hemisphere or the other in controlling specific functions (Passer‚ Smith‚ Holt‚ Bremner‚ Sutherland & Vliek‚ 2009). In recent years‚ there appears to be a growing phenomenon in the generalization
