 Right or Left Brained?!?
THE Right Brain vs Left Brain test ... do you see the dancer turning clockwise or anti-clockwise? If clockwise, then you use more of the right side of the brain and vice versa. Some research says that most of us would see the dancer turning anti-clockwise though you can try to focus and change the direction; see if you can do it. LEFT BRAIN FUNCTIONS-----RIGHT BRAIN FUNCTIONS uses logic-------------------uses feeling detail oriented--------------"big picture" oriented facts rule--------------------imagination rules words and language---------symbols and images present and past------------present and future math and science-----------philosophy & religion can comprehend------------can "get it" (i.e. meaning) knowing---------------------believes acknowledges---------------appreciates order/pattern perception---spatial perception knows object name---------knows object function reality based----------------fantasy based forms strategies-------------presents possibilities practical---------------------impetuous safe--------------------------risk taking I saw this test, and after looking at it for a while, I could willingly cause the dancer to switch directions. I guess that means I'm ambi-brained. Just something to think about. I also heard that you can tell if you're right- or left-brain oriented by clasping your hands together. If the left thumb overlaps your right thumb, you would be more right-brained and if your right thumb overlapped your left thumb, you would be more left brain oriented; probably, not too scientific.
