Thread: Are you Right or Left?

    Default Are you Right or Left?

    Brain wise, which side do you use? This test gave me a pretty accurate answer.
    http://www.wherecreativitygoestoscho...ht/rb_test.htm
    I'm 37% Left Oriented 63% Right Oriented
    Left
    37% Sequential
    27% Reality Based
    17% Logical
    14% Verbal
    11% Linear
    9% Symbolic
    Right
    48% Fantasy Oriented
    43% Intuitive
    37% Concrete
    32% Nonverbal
    12% Holistic
    12% Random

    The right side of your brain controls the left side of your body. In addition to being known as right-brained, you are also known as a creative thinker who uses feeling and intuition to gather information. You retain this information through the use of images and patterns. You are able to visualize the "whole" picture first, and then work backwards to put the pieces together to create the "whole" picture. Your thought process can appear quite illogical and meandering. The problem-solving techniques that you use involve free association, which is often very innovative and creative. The routes taken to arrive at your conclusions are completely opposite to what a left-brained person would be accustomed. You probably find it easy to express yourself using art, dance, or music. Some occupations usually held by a right-brained person are forest ranger, athlete, beautician, actor/actress, craftsman, and artist.
    Pretty darn close though I've never expressed myself through dance or music.

    You are more left-brained than right-brained. Your left brain controls the right side of your body. In addition to being known as left-brained, you are also known as a critical thinker who uses logic and sense to collect information. You are able to retain this information through the use of numbers, words, and symbols. You usually only see parts of the "whole" picture, but this is what guides you step-by-step in a logical manner to your conclusion. Concise words, numerical and written formulas and technological systems are often forms of expression for you. Some occupations usually held by a left-brained person include a lab scientist, banker, judge, lawyer, mathematician, librarian, and skating judge.


    Your complete evaluation follows below:

    Your left brain/right brain percentage was calculated by combining the individual scores of each half's sub-categories. They are as follows:

    Your Left Brain Percentages

    48% Linear (Your most dominant characteristic)
    47% Reality-based
    40% Sequential
    34% Symbolic
    30% Logical
    20% Verbal (Your least dominant characteristic)

    Your Right Brain Percentages

    69% Nonverbal (Your most dominant characteristic)
    29% Intuitive
    28% Concrete
    18% Holistic
    16% Fantasy-oriented
    6% Random (Your least dominant characteristic)

    These results are quite interesting, as I've been performing all types of art for the last fourteen years. One would think me all right brain or something.

    Your left brain/right brain percentage was calculated by combining the individual scores of each half's sub-categories. They are as follows:

    Your Left Brain Percentages

    27% Linear (Your most dominant characteristic)
    27% Verbal
    25% Logical
    17% Symbolic
    14% Reality-based
    9% Sequential (Your least dominant characteristic)


    Your Right Brain Percentages

    39% Intuitive (Your most dominant characteristic)
    36% Holistic
    32% Fantasy-oriented
    28% Concrete
    25% Nonverbal
    23% Random (Your least dominant characteristic)



    What Do These Percentages Mean?
    Low percentages are common in the Brain Type Test and are not indicative of intelligence. Instead, medium to high scores (30 - 50%) are desireable, as they show an ability to utilize a processing method without an abnormal reliance on it. Special focus should be paid to highly dominant (50% or above) or highly recessive (0 - 30%) methods, as they tend to limit your approach when learning, memorizing, or solving problems.

    If you have Highly Dominant characteristics, your normal thinking patterns will naturally utilize these methods. Conscious effort is required to recognize the benefits of other techniques. Using multiple forms of information processing is the best way to fully understand complex issues and become a balanced thinker.

    If you have Highly Recessive characteristics, your normal thinking patterns naturally ignore these methods. You may only consider these under-utilized techniques when "all else fails," or possibly not at all. It is important to recognize the benefits of all of your brain's capabilities in order to become a balanced thinker.
    “The nation that will insist upon drawing a broad line of demarcation between the fighting man and the thinking man is liable to find its fighting done by fools and its thinking by cowards.”

    I have to say it's quite accurate, my left brain totally PWNS my right one in real life just like the test . Interesting to see that I am the only one with a 0% on something so far, not to mention on two aspects. Only one with 40+ on 5 aspects too, not very balanced am I?

    I got slightly more right than left, but I don't think I did it right, because I can never remember what I am or what I actually do when I take these damn tests, so I pick random things or what I think will bring me to a desired result. All I know is, I'm neither.

    I guess so. Spock was extremely logical but many times it wasn't his logic that would work.

    Well quoting the thing:

    Reality-based processing is used by the left hemisphere as a method for processing information with a basis on reality. This processing tool focuses on rules and regulations. An example of this would be how a left-brained person would completely understand the repercussions of turning in a late assignment or failing a test. A left-brained person also usually easily adjusts to changes in their environment.
    So possibly you have all the logical aspects that are based on reality but not so much on the deduction aspects etc...

    Interesting that two people said that their logical scores was wrong...
    Did you guys say you aren't good at math or hate it or something like that? That probably killed your logical score... Also linear and logical are pretty closely related and the general assumptions of what is 'logical reasoning' is often 'linear reasoning'.

    Anyway, for now I shall laugh at you from my pedestal of 46% logical
