Right Brain? Left Brain?

SO RIGHT BRAINED!! !

I got 37% right
21% left on the first one

Auditory : 18%
Visual : 81%
Left : 44%
Right : 55%

on the second test mentioned in this forum subject.

Test 1:
Your percentage score for the left brain is 37%.
Your percentage score for the right brain is 26%.

This means that I am the "most brained" of all members who already posted their results: left + right = 63%. Anyone can beat that?

On the other hand (test 2):
Auditory : 31%
Visual : 68%
Left : 44%
Right : 55%

So, I am "more left-brained than right-brained" (test 1), but in the same time "with a slight right-brain dominance" (test 2). I "usually only see parts of the 'whole' picture" (1), but I "tend to see things in 'wholes' without surrendering the ability to attend to details" (2). I guess fortune cookies give more meaningful analyses.

This test http://brain.web-us.com/brain/braindominance.htm says I'm left brained, and I took it right after the one that said I was right brained (it was something like 25% right brained, 22% left brained). That other tests says I'm left brained and auditory:

Auditory: 52%
Visual: 47%
Left: 65%
Right: 35%

Auditory : 31%
Visual : 68%
Left : 62%
Right : 37%

what does this all mean...?

Auditory : 33%
Visual : 66%
Left : 50%
Right : 50% (Am I the only 50/50?)

My results were almost even. I suppose that means I use both sides of my brain equally.

Right: 26%
Left: 25%

It looks like I lean the farthest to the left so far. Incidentally, it's interesting to note how utterly dependent I am on my right hand to perform any task requiring motor coordination.

I even have difficulty performing simple tasks, such as opening doors or pulling blinds, with my left hand. I'm essentially the opposite of ambidextrous. This even somehow seems to come through when I'm doing exercises like push-ups. My right bicep has always been noticeably larger than my left bicep.

I have always thought that I'm extremely left-brained, and the tests bear this out.

For the first test:
Your percentage score for the left brain is 38%.
Your percentage score for the right brain is 18%.

Second test:
Auditory : 26%
Visual : 73%
Left : 64%
Right : 35%

Auditory : 53%
Visual : 46%
Left : 63%
Right : 36%

yay! Jay, i embrace you as my socialist brother!

"Your percentage score for the right brain is 36%.
Your percentage score for the left brain is 17%."

Why don't these add upto 100%?

That test is messed up. I took it and it said 18 of 18 left brain answers. I knew this did not sound right, so when I checked the answer sheet it was more like 13.5 for right and 4.5 for left, this is probably plus or minus two as there were two other questions I could go either way on. The first question I really have no preference for and even then it probably depends on if I am in a classroom or a theater and then what class or theater.



I think it means off center from the middle like a protractor. If you are 25 degrees right, you are 1/4 more right than left. So 36% would be like 32 degrees off center toward the right, while 17% could be 15 degrees off, which means you mind leans in polygonal pattern across the middle line instead of a straight line. It could also or more simply mean that you use you whole brain 47% of the time, your right 36% of the time, and your Left 17% of the time. I believe it is simply a factor of dominance. I doubt if any would ever be 100%, as that would you litterly would only use half the brain. In humans perhaps, the preference is which side of the brain works better. Which could mean that the left side is average and the right is above average and therefore you use it better, but you still must use both at least some of the time as some of the most basic tasks require elements from both sides.

Heh, yeah, I noticed the play on words when I initially made that post, too.

These are my results, seems I'm more left brained and visual which isn't really much of a surprise.

I thought I was equally visual and auditory.
My brain is pretty well balanced.
