Science Buddies: "Ask an Expert"

In this project I will study brain hemispheres dominance and how they affect personal characteristics. Is this good? I got this idea, and really do want to do it, but I have no idea were to start! Please help.

Hi OneTwo,

I'm glad to hear that you're excited about your idea, but you'll have to clue me in as to what you mean by personal characteristics. Are you referring to our preferences - what hand we use to catch with, write with, eat with, etc.? There are a lot of ways you could go with this topic, but you'd have to focus on just one. Please look at https://www.sciencebuddies.org/science- ... p007.shtml for ideas if you need some direction. There's a link at the bottom of that site that leads to an article on neuroscience with regards to different hemispheres. Think about what tests you could conduct on people to uncover what you specifically want to know. Good luck!
