Today I thought it would be fun to share a couple of ‘tests’ to see if you are left-brained, or right-brained. Heck, share these with the whole family and see who falls on which side…. the more rational left-brained or the more creative right-brained.
The first test can be found over at SmartLab Toys Free Zone — it’s only nine questions… the kind of test with no ‘wrong’ answers, so no worries. :)
You can find the quiz here: Left-brained/Right-brained Quiz

And here is a fun one… watch the dancer to see if she’s moving clockwise… or anticlockwise.
If clockwise, then you use more of the right side of the brain and vice versa.
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.

Ever wondered whether this left-brain vs. right-brain dominance is hereditary? My family appears to be mostly left brains, yet I’m way out there in right field. Fascinating topic.

I took the test of left brained/right brained quiz. And I can’t believe the result. According to the test, I am left brained. It is because I thought I am right brained since I could relate to right brain functions. Anyway, your post and the test is interesting.
