The Right Brain vs Left Brain test M05

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
knows object name
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, which do you think am I?

And which are you?

Is it correct describing you?

I see it turn clockwise nine times for every 10 views. Though I have to force my brain to see it turn anti-clockwise. Unfortunately I can see it turn anti-clockwise at most 20 seconds.

About the character of whom see it as what they see, I found that I am right brain oriented person. Some said I might be a right brain oriented person because of I am left handed person. Most psychologists says left handed people mostly smarter than right handed and like to think so much.

For me, I have some pros and contras about what the psychologists and the character listed in the post. I do like to think, but I do not think that I am so smart.

Let see what character I have from the list of right brain functions. Almost of them are right about me except impetuous. Commonly I am not too impetuous, but it will be happen when I am totally stressed and very depressed. I do fantasy based thinking. That is why I will be more childish and used to think very nonsense things.

One of the things that make me imperfect is I easily to forget everything even my birthday and my MyKad number! Lastly, I am wonder why I am so hard to excel in math and science. Now, so I do know why. I am not a left brain oriented person!

Assalamualaikkum...well, i see the dancer is turning clockwise.but sometimes the dancer changes her direction, that makes me think there are 2 direction in one picture. but i am sure that most of the time i see the dancer turns clockwise.i believe that i use both of my brain.
the reason i said that base on example you are given,i actually like math and science.beside that,i also like symbols and images.however, which ever part of brain we use, we can still achieve our goal and dreams because God has created us with our own characteristics and natural behavior. just be yourself.

firstly,i can see the dancer turning in the anti-clockwise but after a few second i can see she change the direction.About the character,i think i more use left brain.The main reason is math.Yup,even i can't get answer for question math,but i still love math until now.hahaha..my father also like math very much..hurmm..I don't care who am I...be yourself!!

hi,
at first i concluded that the dancer is turning anti-clockwise but after few MINUTES i realised that the dancer actually turning both clockwise and anti-clockwise.personally in my opinion as human being we need to use both our left and right brain,but it is just matter of the situation.for example we need to use our left brain when we solving maths question and need to use right brain more when we read story books such as harry potter or lord of ring,because we need to imagine the characters.for me,actually i cannot decide which side of brain i using more because i'm very practical and i would never use my feelings to decide or do something but i like draw,imagine and like to take risk.so who i am????hahaha,so as ceaser says (I DECIDE MY FUTURE....)i really enjoyed myself watching the dancer because it was interesting and CONFUSING.

thanks,

hi everyone,
Actually when the first time I saw I thought the dancer was dancing anticlock wise then it change it direction.That show that I used both of my brain.but I think that I used my right brain more then the left one this is because I mostly do things based on my feeling. Besides that also I like to imagine things.But when it comes to studies I used the left brain that is because I like calculation more then memorizing.So for me it does not matter with part of the brain we used as long we think before doing something.That is what brain is for....

firstly,I see the dancer dance anticlockwise.After a few seconds, it turns clockwise.It depends on our mind to change the position of the dancer.Based on the facts,I think that I used my right brain more than the left one this is because I more prefer to imagine and can control easily the dancer turning position.But there is a variety of method to train our brain so that it can function better.

from the website i found that i'm using my left brain in my daily life.This is because,i just can see the dancer turning anti-clockwise.I've tried so many time to focus on the dancer to turning clockwise.But it's not happen.i seems to be jealous for those who can see the dancer turning clockwise as well as anti-clockwise.this is because they can manage to use both of their left and right brain.

i realize that i'm a kind of person with :

-uses logic
-detail oriented
-facts rule
-words and language
-present and past
-math and science
-can comprehend
-knowing
-acknowledges
-order/pattern perception
-knows object name
-reality based
-forms strategies
-practical
-safe

Hai madam jumani!
Amazing!
for the first time I saw it,the dancer just turning anti-clockwise.My friend argue with me because she just see clockwise.After a few minutes,we both can see both direction!OMG!hehe..then, what is the result which side of brain I use more? I think I use more the left side of brain because I use to think about the present and past rather than the present and future.All the characteristic represent me more.I also want to give opinion that,I think,madam is right brain because you always give a speech full of emotions.hehe..but i just guess it..That's all.Thank you..

But after it turning back anticloclwise.It mean I can see the dancer turning at both side. I am surely that I have use more of the right side brain. I said that because I like fantasy and can paint the potrait.
