Title: Very curious about Saga-ites and this test
Post by: Mixxi on October 20, 2013, 09:48:45 PM
Left-brained, right-brained?

I thought I knew. Results were not what I expected, but rather accurate, I think.

Ditto.

Would probably get a different result if I did it again.

For those of us seeing the woman rotate in a clockwise direction, something really messed up is if you look at the shadow of her foot and concentrate on the fact that it is in fact rotating in a counterclockwise direction. Then look up at the body and you will suddenly see her rotating the other way. Then close you eyes and look away for a few seconds and look back and she will be back to rotating clockwise!

44-56.  I'm not sure about the "put a hand on your head" thing,  my right hand is on the mouse...  Otherwise... sure, why not. O0

34% - 66%

I also thought the hand on your head part was weird, but I suspect that's part of the test. If you're right-handed, your first instinct would be your right hand, and if you do that, perhaps it shows simple thinking, more gut-instinct. Using your left hand because it's free shows problem solving. That would be my thought, anyway. I could be entirely wrong.

edit: Clicked on "How come" and saw the explanation. Yeah, it's kind of silly. Oh well, it's a 30-second test anyway  :P

I'd say 14% - 11% rest unused haha.

28% left brain - 72% right brain   

It's a good thing Ethawn covers the whole left brain part of our life. :P

Seriously though, I should work on some left brain stuff, do Sudoku or something.

Maybe this is my analytical side talking but all I kept thinking was that most people may end up using their opposite hand to their dominant hand because, I presumed, that dominant hand would be using the mouse. I thought that added a variable.

As a Myers Briggs INTJ, I find these data fascinating. Everyone please report to my lab for further testing.

Covers it pretty much the inverse actually... 72% Left Brain, 28% Right Brain.... I have proof! We clearly balance each other out EXTREMELY well.    ;D

Wow, Ethawn, that's incredible!!

I do find a brain test that mispells 'you' a little disconcerting, however.

You misunderstand. They were just presenting an interesting fact.

As it turns out, this guy is also  left brained.

Of course, that does mean they messed up the verb tense, sadly. :P

Well, 50% Left / 50% Right.  Surprised the crap out of me.  Sort of.

Try as I might (and I did), I could not could not could not force myself to see the dancer turning counterclockwise, but I also failed to smack myself on the head with my mouse.  And when I screwed up on the names/colors part, it was initially a failure to follow instructions due to the initial panic of "OH MY GOD, 4 SECOND TIMER!"

Ethawn and Elly--amazing and not at all surprising!

Namae--amazing and rather disturbing.

And Askari...maybe we need a Myers-Briggs interlude...(and I'm INFJ). :D

Did Myers-Briggs not so long ago; INTJ as well, if I recall correctly.

Both side equally. When I answered the question about the hand on my head I answered Right even though that was the hand my phone was in because had it been free my first impulse was to use that one.

53%/47% which is not surprising to me.  As a kid I was totally a dreamer, imaginative, and artistic.  Someway along the way, my step-father felt I had an ability to debate (I'm sure you're all surprised) and pushed me into lawschool.  As a result I practiced my unused nuggets of logic and organization.  Now I am a strange hodge-podge.  An amalgam of sorts ... an intellectual Frankenstein.

I think these are the first couple of turns for one of my old high school locker combinations.
