My brain is not cross-lateralized, although 3 out of 10 traits are opposite to my handedness (facial recognition, hand clasping and ear dominance). And it means ... nothing :lol:

Trait Lateral Orientation
Handedness RIGHT
Foot Dominance RIGHT
Arm Crossing Preference LEFT
Eye Dominance RIGHT
Facial Recognition LEFT
Hand Clasping RIGHT
Handwriting Preference RIGHT
Hand Throwing Preference RIGHT
Chewing Preference RIGHT
Ear Dominance RIGHT
For each trait above, you will see your preference: RIGHT or LEFT. Your brain's primary dominance is reflected by your Handedness. If you have any trait which is opposite to your Handedness, your brain is "cross-lateralized" for that trait. If a majority of traits are opposite to your Handedness, then your brain is globally cross-lateralized. What does that mean? Scientists are not really sure. But most people are not globally cross-lateralized (especially if they're right-handed).

I was left for everything except Facial Recognition and Hand Clasping. I've often wished I could hold the phone to my right ear, as that would make it easier to jot down notes.
