Sperry and Gazzaniga split brain research concluded that left hemisphere is more geared towards analytic and verbal tasks whilst the right is more adept at performing spatial and music. Right hemisphere can only produce rudimentary words and phrases but contributes emotional and holistic content to language. Strength as research has allowed us to conclude that the left hemisphere is the analyser while right hemisphere is the synthesiser.
