The Right Brain vs Left Brain test S02

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?

hye miss jumani, ops i meant madam.. hehe!
ok, first thing first.. after a while of staring and focussing at the picture you posted, i could see that the women is turning counter-clockwise. i tried to focus and stare more deeply into the picture but i could not manage to see the women turning clock-wise. *sigh*
can you really see it by the way madam jumani, cuz i cetainly cant do it.. hehe.. i had try, many times.. hehe

ok, and then u listed all the differences btween the left brain function and the right brain function. well, i can see that the things are true, but, mostly of them.. some of tehm are right and some of them aren't. i mean, do i really can be practical with stuff?? and do i really in always in the safe side?? well, guess we just have to wait and see right?

which one do i think you are.. hurm.. *a moment of silent*
i think you are definitely the 'left brainer'
why?? well you are lecturer, a person who gives out knowledge, of course you cant depends on your feeling when you want to do anything later on (be emotianol is what i mean) you need to consider the other factor.. and you cant also be buyers right?? if you believe in ones thing you cant expect the other to believe the same thing as you are.. u have to be a free spirit person. well these are the things that listed under the right brainer, and by looking and observing you.. you showed more of the left brainer than the right brainer..

im here not to judge you in anyhow but i just want to state the reason why do i feel that way. this is my opinion..

thank you..
sorry if i am wrong..

reena said...

oh, oh!!! yes!!
OMG-ness...
i can see it! ican see it!
all you need to do is focus more and use a bit your imaginatives side..
yeah for me!
:)
:p

hi madam ju,
wow i can see it turn in clock-wise and some part i can see it turning anti-clockwise...
is it a weird thing??hope its not...

the describing parts for some parts are true and some i don't rather know whether it have inside me or not..

which one is yours...i think you will be the one that uses both of the brain...because you are imaginative perhaps like when you give example for our movie maker project..the example that you state out was such a creative idea which is toothbrush...ahahha...and for some parts you are good in languages..you love to learn other languages if I'm not mistaken which you mentioned in our first class...hope to learn more from you..

regards

Ehmm..

First time when I saw the dramatic body, wow!!.. very fuhhh..hihi. I am shy with myself.
But after read a sentence than I know what it try to tell us about.

It is clockwise or anticlockwise?
It make me confusing about a minute. But lastly I know the answer. How and who did it? It is very dificult to make the motion.

After read all about the article I am confuse which one is myself.
Maybe both or not..

After thinkA many time lastly I knew I am in the both side of brain. Both have their own characters that similar to me.

Thats all.

Hi Madam,

First of all, I must say, the image was defintely an eye-catcher, speaking from my own point of view that is. I actually tried staring at it for a few minutes as I wanted to see if the dancer would actually turn in both directions. It turned out to be, she was.

I initially thought I was only exhausting one side of my brain, but I guess most of us got fooled as the image was more of an optical illusion rather than that of the mind. The dancer actually turned anti-clockwise when I first looked at it but she changed direction after a few minutes. Therefore, it is safe to say that none of us are brain dead on one side, although, it is true that we are all more inclined towards using one side of our brain.

In my opinion, I would say that Madam Ju belongs to the category of left brain users. Forgive me if I'm wrong though. As for myself, I would say that I am also more of a left brain user. Although, I do like letting my imagination take control most of the time and fantasize that fairytales would come to life, and I love taking risks depending on the situation.

hi, madam...

The dancer is turning clockwise and anti-clockwise. Then, am I use more both side of my brain and vice versa?? Actually I also do not know the answer. But I am sure that the dancer is turning both side.
She is turning now but my brain stuck at the same time..haha^^

I guess madam is using both side brain. And how about me?? a left brain user?? Actually I am not very sure about that.
Most of the left brain functions are not describing me but compare with the right brain functions, I believe that I use more left brain.

Amazing post!

First of all, salam Madam Jumani and some apologize for late commenting your post since I need some times to give some responds to this blogging assessment.


I saw that the dancer is turning clockwise. After a few blinking my eyes, I found that the dancer had changed her direction to anti-clockwise.

It was confusing and a bit doubt about this trick. I can say that I can make my brain work for both sides.

I am 101% enthusiastic to calculation subject such as Math but I am not interested in science subject. Those talent was on the left brain.

I love to take risk and make my life more challenging for my own good and in certain time but I am not strong enough to face problems that can make my day become worst.*wondering*

In my opinion, I think you more to the right brain since you love to use your feeling in giving your speech.

You such a sporting person that I ever had eventhough sometimes you quite strict in certain situation; finished our task on time..*wink*


Sorry if I am wrong in giving some opinion since I am not a psychic.*sigh*

Hi, madam Jumani,
It's so interesting! The dancer turning clockwise or anti-clockwise? After focus her for a few minutes, I found that she is turning both the clockwise and anti-clockwise. Then, what is the result for my test~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. Other than that, I'm also the people who lack of imagination. I prefer safety more than being brave to take risk while managing problems.
I think madam Jumani use more the left side of brain. I found that you are a logical person while talking about the ideals. Am I getting you right, madam Jumani?

Munira said...

OMG OMG OMG! i jus saw it!
it requires patience you know... huhu..

in my opinion, you are more a 'left brainer' because the functions says it all and you had show it all! i think so..... :)

as for me, i think im both 'left and right brainer' because i hate risk taking... safe is more preferable for me...
and i love to think of rhe present and future than present and past eventhough i do think of the present and past-sometimes! hehe... and i also appreciates people around me and everything that i had...

Salam Madam Ju..
What a nice picture..
So amazing!!!
Sometimes I think this is so confusing..
But somehow I can crystal clear seeing that the dancer move clockwise..
So I have used more right side of the brain!!!
It was meet what I am always expected!!!

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

I think all this kind of characteristics are more towards me..
In my class, I'm always love reading subject rather than calculating subject..
I'm also a nature art lover like to see the picture because it can make up my mood..
So fantastic as I was always love in drawing and like to dream about certain things I like most..
Thanks Madam..
This picture has made me know more about myself.huhu..
Love it and live it!!!
=)

assalamualaikum..
that is one a kind of picture..
for the first few minutes, i can see that the woman turning clockwise, and then turn to anti-clockwise.. and after a while starring at the picture, hehe.. i found that the trick is, when the both feet joined together, that's when the trick plays on you.. depend on what you look and imagine, actually we can control the rotation of the picture.. just try to wait for the both of legs of the woman come together, that is up to you, you see it whether it turn clockwise or anti-clockwise.. hehe.. nice trick.. so to define me, some parts are true, but some are not.. you can not predict human entirely correct..

Assalamualaikum and Madam Ju...

Well about this topic, as I know that have many ways to identify our brain with varies technique.
I know this thing, since I'm secondary school such as using our hands to know which brain, I'm use most...So, I thinks Madam Ju is right brain because the career you take is all about reading.
While about me, I'm in left brain Because I loves the place in tidy and clean. Well about the infomation you put at left brain totally describe who am I. So, I thinks that was I'm right now...

Assalamualaikum madam.

Ok, now I realized that my right brain is functions more than my left brain! I have watched the dancer again and again and again. But, I still saw her moving clockwise. Is it shows that I'm not normal? I hope not!

salam madam jumani...

firstly..when i was looking at the picture..it turns anti-clockwise..but then i can see it turns clockwise...so..the picture is actually change its turning time to time..for the brain function, i think you are left brainer..
as for me.. i think i am left brainer also..some of the details is correctly describing me but some not..i always use logic and i like calculation rather than reading...
