Difficult psych questions?

[brownie_9605]

Hi Guys, had a question I was confused on in my SAC? Any help?

Would a split brain patient be able to draw a pencil from viewing the word PENCIL with there right hand that was in their right visual field, if they were asked without the preposition of them saying it first?
This confused me as I know the left controls the right hand and language but the right hemisphere controls spatial reasoning/creativity/(imagery). I wrote they would not be able to draw it but would be able to write it; as I assumed it would depend on if they had said it outloud for there ears to allow their right side hemi to hear it? I cannot find answers in textbooks or online and haven't read this scenario before! Any help would be awesome

I don't know about drawing the pencil out but this is what i found from google:
"The right brain saw the image and could mobilize a nonverbal response. It simply couldn’t talk about what it saw.The same kind of finding proved true for touch, smell and sound." It didn't have anything about writing/drawing something out. The only thing it said was the right hemisphere controls hand/finger movement of left hand and vice versa...

Because it was in the right visual field, the left hemisphere will be processing the image. The left hemisphere controls the motor movements of the right hand side of the body therefore they will be able to draw the pencil with their right hand.
With questions regarding drawing, you don't need to consider whether it is the "creative" hemisphere or not- just consider which side of the brain controls which side of the body. If you want to go further, they will also be able to write the word and verbally express it
