> Is this still a thing? I had an EEG done with charts, and it was all top-down view with quite a bit of symmetry broken down into 20+ nodes, but most importantly there was no L/R terminology at all. Brain lateralization is complex, and the pop-psy ideas of "left brain logic, right brain emotion and intuition" is a vast and incorrect oversimplification -- one that is often used to disparage logically minded people and rational thinking in general. While it is true that Broca's and Wernicke's areas, brain regions important to language, are typically (not always!) found in the left hemisphere, other areas of linguistic processing can be found in the right hemisphere. Women and left-handers tend to have less brain lateralization than do men and right-handers, respectively. They are not going to talk about lateralization in your EEG charts because fundamentally, it doesn't really matter. Apparently this is one of those ideas that people cling to, much like "Pluto is a planet" for emotional (right hemispheric?) reasons.
