Are You Right Or Left Brained?

[grasscarp]

Idea is we all have a dominant side of the brain - and this shapes personality
People who are right-brained tend to be creative, curious and intuitive
Those ruled by the left tend to be logical, strategic and rational

There is a test to take (very quick)

I got result that I use both sides equally which is annoying as they dont say what that means about my personality.

100% left cos i'm never right

[pixie373]

59% right , 41% left - although it said it was equal.

You must be male, Bernie x

[Arksided]

69% left, I can't work out the rest, the test was so exhausting! phew need a lie down.

[Old_Geezer]

They reckoned 66% left.
I still claim 100% both.

[berniecuddles]

Interesting they welcome feedback but didn't seem to supply a field or button for it. The first question didn't specify whether the rotation shown was looking from above or below. Later it asks one to do something with one's hands failing to realise if one hand is using the PC mouse it's unlikely to be used. Then some the answers seemed dodgy, one, for instance, suggesting an elongated view of something was equal in size to the original diagram above yet where they had identical colouring insisted they differed greatly in colour. I think it has a lot to put right.

Psybbo gets two kisses. Hmmmmm.

[berniecuddles]

i thought you would be happier if i gave you one (xxx 3 now)

[pixie373]

Lol! Thank you xxx

I imagine that's the point, though, OG (except the business about which hand you put on your head). Whether you see the dancer as being shown from above or below is part of the question; likewise whether difference in shape is more important than difference in colour. I presume geometric shape in taken as pointing to logic and colour to creativity (just a guess).

[pixie373]

Yes, exactly, jno.

[Slapshot]

Whatever the blokes answer, left or right they are bound to be fibbing....women are always telling us our brains are in our b*******.... ;)

[berniecuddles]

lol slappy right on!

[chrissa1]

66% Left.

[pixie373]

Slappy, the test for women was left /right brain
for men- left/right testicle
it explained at the start;-)

The idea that one side of the brain controls logic and rationality, whilst the other half controls creativity is almost certainly incorrect. It is true that some skills are used in some regions more than the other, but actually it seems far more likely that it is the degree of connectivity between the various regions of the brain that is more important.
