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 :

words and language, present and past,

forms strategies, practical, safe .

RIGHT BRAIN FUNCTIONS :

can "get it" (i.e. meaning), believes,
appreciates spatial perception
knows object function, fantasy based
presents possibilities, impetuous
risk taking .

 

 

Comments from the Captain:

I only get her turning clockwise, unless I look at the shadow of her feet- then with a little concentration,

I can get her to turn counterclockwise. The instant I blink my eyes, she goes back to clockwise.  Wouldn't it seem logical that if you looked

through you left eye (using right brain) she would be clockwise, then if you used your opposite eye, she would change direction?  Obviously

not true, but wouldn't cha think? Also, does being left or right handed having anything to do with being left or right brain dominant? 

Then you could do your math homework with your right hand with your left eye close, and do your English Lit class with your left hand and right eye closed?
