Abstract
In the context of individual differences in human thinking patterns, the present study examined differences between visual thinking and verbal thinking, specifically with regard to brain activity associated with each. In a recent study, we divided subjects into visual thinkers and non-visual thinkers according to their responses to a questionnaire survey, and took magnetoencephalogram (MEG) measurements while they underwent verbal and visual tasks [1] . This revealed significant differences in brain activation patterns near both the primary visual area and frontal language area, particularly during the verbal task [1] . From this, we surmised that human original thinking can be divided into visual and verbal types. Our neurological analyses of the diversity of individual thinking characteristics can likely be applied to the fields of economics and education.
