The Right Brain vs Left Brain

[LindaGB]

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.

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
uses logic
detail oriented
facts rule
words and language
present and past
math and science
can comprehend
knowing
acknowledges
order/pattern perception

reality based
forms strategies
practical
safe


RIGHT BRAIN FUNCTIONS
uses feeling
"big picture" oriented
imagination rules
symbols and images
present and future
philosophy & religion
can "get it" (i.e. meaning)
believes
appreciates
spatial perception
knows object function
fantasy based
presents possibilities
impetuous
risk taking

So cool! it's clock wise for me too but sometime I can see her turn.... One of my girl and my husband is clockwise too and my other girl see it anti-clockwise

Both dh and I see her turning clockwise. All my son said is "she's naked!" :rotfl2:

[jennieb75]

LOL... she started out counter-clockwise and then she just changed to clockwise... now I can't get her to go back! too weird! lol

[elliesmama]

This is FREAKING ME OUT! LOL!

At first, she only went clockwise for me but if I stare and it and force my finger to trace her direction (on the table), I can switch it back and forth. I am controlling this with my brian! AAAAAAAAAHHHH!! :no:

LOL! Thank you for sharin this Linda.. I can't wait until my engineer hubby and my creative, yet very logical dd come home to test them.

Mostly she is dancing clockwise.. I have to work hard to get her to switch.. which means I am right brained but can be left-brained if I force myself! LOL!

OK - I'm the odd one out. anti-clockwise which is not a surprise being a maths/science girl.

LOL She's turning mostly counter clock wise for me too, but I am not a math/since girl ! I can get her to move if I really concentrate though! This is too funny!!

[meems]

oh this is kind a freaking me out.

she started out clockwise for me. I've gotten her to switch a few times but I don't know how I did it.

I'm going to have to show DH. I'm a little dizzy right now.

[ckr_rambo]

I can only see clockwise. I can not for the life of me figure out how to switch it...

[LazyKitty]

This is cool! She started counter-clokwise but somehow switched to clockwise and I'm not able to change her direction anymore. Weird :1eye:
