which brain sided are you?

look at the spinning silhouette of the woman. Which way is she spinning?

For me, she's spinning clockwise. Sometimes if I concentrate, she can spin the other way.

Oddly enough, I thought she was spinning both directions. The first time I looked it was clockwise, the second time it was counter-clockwise, and now it is back to clockwise.

Weird, isn’t it?

Well, once I was told I was lame-brain

It's clockwise!
can you see it?

it's clockwise for you.

I saw clockwise first, but it kept switching back and forth for me. I saw both ways equally.

Clockwise dominant, but, after a few seconds, I could make her reverse at will. I could also deny the illusion of spinning and see it as shifting directly from left to right, right to left.

Oh, and, just because I am in a mood to be pedantic, I suggest looking at her shadow on the floor.

Clockwise,
but if I cover all but the legs and focus, I can make her switch.

Very interesting.
I'll have to try it in the summer, because I feel like I switch with the seasons.

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


I don't know if I believe this.

The left side, right side was debunked, we all use both.

Okay, I figured I'd be serious and take the test.

Well, all I have to do is look at her feet and each time I do her direction changes.

For me counterclockwise. but my way of thinking doesnt really fit into the left brain descriptiony thing.

I dont like maths, and I use emotion, not logic to make decisions. Though I do like to theorise about stuff. And I am not "reality based", lol. i live in a fantasy world.

You'll also find the solution.

Interesting, just like the other posters, one way or the other, and I can't make then switch unless I stop looking at it then look at it again.

Things from both lists apply to me at some point or the other, strongly too, though I think I'm mostly left-brained?

Maybe it depends on what half of your brain chooses to think about it at that moment, or the test proves nothing at all.

For some reason I like the first choice above better than the second

Edit: Finally read the description, it seems it's a bit of both assumptions I came up with, I like

What's ironic is I have a lazy eye, the right one to be more precise. So I have a much more limited "right" or logical view of the world, and a more pronounced "feeling" view, but at the same time, I try to think of things logically? Could my eye problem be fundamentally the cause of some of my aparant problems of my thinking patterns, why I often "feel" first, than "think" when I really want to "think"?

I think I just blew my own mind

The test proves nothing. The dancer will appear to rotate clockwise at first appearance, but if you focus on the shadow under the feet, the image seems to pop and suddenly it's going the other way around.

I agree with the guy above.
