    [SIZE=2]Are you right or left brain? Try this test

    [/SIZE]
    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.

    It stops then moves to the other direction.

    At first I saw it turning clockwise. But I can trick my mind and see it turning counter-clockwise. It'll be easier to trick the mind and reverse the direction if you'll only focus on lower body portion (legs). Cover the upper body and see what I mean.

    it is all clockwise for me and never moves the other way! maybe i'm 100% right brain and you are 50% -50% like my gf?

    Clockwise for me (ergo, right brain).

    But I don't get it. The functions enumerated in the left brain suits me more. (I've never been a risk-taker, and facts rule for me, among other left-brain functions).

    As for me, it is predominantly turning clockwise.... On a few occasions, I see the figure turning counterclockwise....

    Agree here, maybe it was the other way around?

    I am an engineer, and I am oriented, trained and schooled for left-brain function.... Also, I am right-handed, which means that I am predominantly controlled by my left-brain....

    The test result I am getting doesn't make sense to me....

    try to look at the legs only then look down a bit without focusing on the legs..you will notice while your doing the look up then down with only your eyes you can actually control the movement from clockwise to counter at will

    i tried that too like what my gf said but it is still clockwise for me! grrrrr

    FWIW... we are both engineers and both of us are supposed to be logical thinkers! but why the difference!
    this is freaking me out!

    first glance, it was moving clockwise. then after scrolling the page down a little, i saw a reversal in direction and another movement of the page, it reverses direction again...

    Wait,- I think the site is in Perth, Australia (Southern Hemisphere)....

    Isn't it that water predominantly flows down the drain counterclockwise in the Northern Hemisphere, while predominantly clockwise in the Southern Hemisphere?

    Maybe, they got the directions mixed-up....

    Just wild-guessing here.....

    There's a problem with the animation. The way it moves up and down makes it seem like it is going clockwise.

    Meh... need a better figure to work on.

    But then, we're men. We're more concentrated on spatial functions than women, so that may skew the results a bit.

    Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

    i've seen this before and it moves clockwise and then counter-clockwise afte a while. anyway, i think i'm really left-brain dominant.

    at first puro clockwise lang din nakikita ko pero, figured out how to make it turn clockwise and counter. all you have to do is....

    cover your left eye to make it go counter-clockwise.
    cover your right eye to make it go back to clockwise.

    this is to use different parts of the brain to process the animation.

    although, dubious din ako sa listed brain functions. im a programmer and that should make me see counter-clockwise always since im supposed to be logic and detail oriented.

    Counter-clockwise ang tingin ko, so I must be more on the left side of the brain.

    How can that be, when I suck at math?! :puyat:
