If you’re left handed you’re more likely to be a genius, says study
According to IFL Science, those who have a left-hand preference “on average, [have] a more developed right-brain hemisphere”, which helps when it comes to processing and understanding spatial awareness and mental representations of objects.
On top of this, left-handers also have a larger corpus callosum – the bundle of nerve cells connecting the two brain hemispheres – which suggests that “left-handers have an enhanced connectivity between the two hemispheres and hence superior information processing”, making them faster at processing information than those with a right-hand preference.
Researchers claim that lefties are more intelligent and eloquent than their right-handed counterparts. In tests conducted by Dr. Alan Searleman from St Lawrence University in New York, he found that left-handers can be considerably more intellectually gifted. There were a higher percentage of left-handed people with IQs over 140 than right-handed people – which is the “genius” bracket.Some of the earliest works of western philosophy and science were written with a left hand. Aristotle, he of the scientific method, early physics, astrology, meteorology and ethics, penned an exhaustive list of works that laid the foundation of much of modern science.
