You need to explain what both lateralisation and localisation mean and refer to them throughout the essay giving examples using research evidence. To do this you will need to explain and evaluate a variety of methods of studying the brain including clinical studies and anatomical studies, for example, Phinneas Gage, Brocca (2.1). You should also include at least one invasive method for example, neurosurgery and one non-invasive method for example, a brain scanning technique referring to research with patients who have suffered brain trauma/injury or undergone surgery. Remember that you have to evaluate the effectiveness of the methods by fully explaining the strengths and weaknesses of each method, and relate the studies to the real life situations by outlining what psychologists have learnt from the studies
