Re: Are you right-brained or left-brained?

Here's a 20-question interactive test:
http://www.planetpsych.com/zInteractive/brain.htm.


It gives a percentage LB vs RB score; it does the same for visual vs auditory tendencies. This one seems to work just fine for me. Has anybody else tried it?

Started out anti-clockwise then got it going around the other way, just as naturally if not a bit more so.

Figures.

I'm left-handed but throw a ball and shoot rifle right-handed. Play a guitar right-handed. My left eye's not so great, and I was actually functionally blind until the age of at least 4. I write with my left hand and send Morse code with my right. I'm all mixed up lol.

Re: Are you right-brained or left-brained?

I saw it turn counterclockwise first, and then I scrolled down and read comments and now I can only see it clockwise.

But I know I'm left brained because I spent the next few minutes analyzing why the object could be viewed as spinning either way and ... it's driving me nuts. It's making me really angry.

Does that thing change halfway through? Is it one of those "gotcha" sort of things? Even if people here think it's a serious test?

Kind of like how articles from The Onion keep getting cited as real news.

Re: Are you right-brained or left-brained?

cw when I first look at it and when I look away and return it is ccw. I can make it turn both ways every time I look away and then look back it has reversed - it only proves I'm neither brained. [go figure] Dave

Re: Are you right-brained or left-brained?

She's going CW unless I scroll up so only the shadow is visible when I can force myself to see it switch to CCW, but I can only get a couple of CCW turns out of the girl before she switches back. According to that other test, I'm about 2:1 LB-to-RB (which fits with everything else), so I don't have any idea what's going on. Too much music recently, probably.

She isn't moving at all. Must be the lobotomy.
Nice rack, though.













Ok, Clockwise.
