Right brain dominance: 16
Left brain dominance: 16

Strange, because I answered no to most of the questions. Some I couldn't decide.

I've taken a more extensive test like this before, I think I was like 47 right 53 left.

on this one I got 16/16

I don't really know any aspies that well in RL so its hard for me to say anything on the subject with any authority. Even if I did I'd never think to ask their brain type.

I'm definitely more left brained, though I typically get sarcasm, metaphors, etc.

Aspies would be a little more able to think
outside the box.

Tell me, any of you feel that your right
brainedness has enabled you to integrate better
into non-autistic world? And do you feel that
thinking more out the box has hidden your AS
and thus delayed seeing yourself as a person
with AS?



thank you for this, it was one of the issues I found hard to place myself on the spectrum
I ended that with the thought that my main obsession is stand-up comedy so I thought I was well versed in that area?
the more I look into this the more I see it is more of a blueprint of the growing mind that choses it's own path,and everything describing autism is not carved in stone rather just markers.
to add does anyone think that having to learn non-verbal cues on there own helps them anilize them better?......when you do catch them?
