Abstract

Objectives: The purpose of the present study was to determine the role of behavioral brain systems and hemispheric superiority on the motor creativity of teenagers.
Methods & Materials: 239 male and female students completed the Edinburgh Demographic Questionnaire and the Brain-Behavioral Systems Questionnaire by purposive sampling. Then, 207 teenagers with an average age of 15.4 were selected according to the criteria for entering the study, based on the scores of the questionnaires in the right superior-activating groups (58 teenagers), right superior-inhibiting (64 teenagers), left superior-activating (37 teenagers) and The upper left-inhibitor (48 teenagers) were placed. Then they performed the motor creativity test of teenagers (Martinez and Fernandez Rio, 2019).
Results: The findings of multivariate variance analysis showed that adolescents with behavioral activation system compared to behavioral inhibition system have a higher mean in psychological components (P=0.03), initiative, flexibility, movement creativity (P=0.001) Also, left superior teenagers had a higher average in psychological components, initiative, and motor creativity (P=0.001) compared to right superior teenagers.
Conclusion: Therefore, left-handed people whose dominant hemisphere is right and have a behavioral activation system have better movement creativity than right-handed people with an inhibited behavioral brain system.
