Which Way is the Dancer Spinning?
If you see the dancer spinning to the
right (or clockwise) supposedly you are right brain dominant.
If you see the dancer spinning to the
left (or counter clockwise) supposedly you are left brain dominant.
A Right brain dominant person generally:
-uses feelings
-is "big picture" oriented (sees many sides)
-has an active imagination and is creative
-understands images and symbols
-is good with spatial perception
-is interested in philosophy and religion
-"gets it"
-is fantasy oriented
-is spontaneous and impulsive
-has sudden and forceful energy or emotion
-is a risk taker
A Left Brain person generally:
-uses logic
-understands sequence
-is detail oriented
-is ruled by facts
-is good with words and language
-is good with math and science
-is reality based
-is practical
-is safe
-sees an order or pattern to things
What are you?
It has reinforced what I already know:
That I feel that I am a great parallel parker in my fantasy based life.

According to Steven Novella, a clinical neurologist at Yale University Medical Center--(impressive!)
This optical illusion that claims to be a quick test to see if you use more of your right brain or left brain is utter nonsense. He writes,
"Sure, we have two hemispheres that operate fine independently and have different abilities, but they are massively interconnected and work together as a seamless whole (providing you have never had surgery to cut your corpus callosum).We also do have hemispheric dominance, but that determines mostly your handedness and the probability of language being on the right or the left. There is also often asymmetry for memory, with some being right or left hemisphere dominant. But none of this means that your personality or abilities are more right brain or left brain. That much is nonsense.Further, how your visual cortex constructs this optical illusion says nothing about your hemispheric dominance, and is absolutely not a quick personality profile."
I say: Oh well...its fun anyway.
