Left or Right Brain

[CptnNsan0]

In the image there is a dance spinning. You must determine whether she is turning clockwise or counter clockwise. If you view the dancer turning clockwise you are dominantly a right brained person. If you view the dancer turning counter clockwise you are a dominantly left brained person. I am left brained



Now for the Attributes. All my not apply to you

Left Brained Attributes:

• 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

Right Brain Attributes:

• uses feeling
  "big picture" oriented
  imagination rules
  symbols and images
  present and future
  philosophy & religion
  can "get it" (i.e. meaning)
  believes
  appreciates
  spatial perception
  knows object function
  fantasy based
  presents possibilities
  impetuous
  risk taking

Now for the challenge. See if you can make the dancer spin in the other direction. I'll give you a hint, focus on the legs and the shadow.

I don't think you can justify whether you're right/left brain dominant solely off a single image.

She's turning clockwise.... I cannot see it any other way.

[Tural]

This "test" gives me an opposite result of that which I know to be true. It's hardly accurate at all, and can't be taken as a legitimate assessment. The biggest factor in this is that it actually is going clockwise. Viewing it the other way only changes perception, not what is actually happening. People generally will (And should) answer to what is truthful, not based on their perspective.

[CptnNsan0]

I see it turning counter clockwise honestly.

[-DeToX-]

I see clockwise, but this test is so inaccurate, im so much more and some less of what they said for right brain...

EDIT:

It turns left and right at random times for me... and no I don't focus on it alot, I will just come back to the page and it will be going a different way.

[Tural]

The only way I could imagine it being viewed as counter-clockwise is if you see it as two dimensional, not three. When viewing the object three dimensionally, it is clear that it is rotating in the clockwise direction, based on the way the objects are turning, how they come in/out of view behind other areas, etc. If you could view it with a material, rather than black, the object could only exist like that if it was moving clockwise.

[CptnNsan0]

well I must be an idiot then

[-DeToX-]

Meh, I don't think I look at it from a 2D perspective turning left.

Though this image is weird.

I see it turning left, then it goes right, then left ;x. I'm definitely no idiot... Though I see right lasting longer...

You got any other images?

[V0Lt4Ge]

I see it going clockwise.

I took that test and got an even right brain left brain score.

Right Brain
|||||||||||||| 56%
Left Brain
|||||||||||||| 56%

btw each side is checked separately, that is why it is over 100%.

EDIT:
Err last time but this basically totals it all for me, I'm done searching:

You responded as a right brained person to 9 questions, and you responded as a left brained person to 9questions.

I tried another quiz and got an equal 9-9.

Thats creepy. Anyways I'm done, thanks for the fun.

Dude, I'm with you 100%. This is one of the strangest images I've ever seen. One moment it's moving clockwise, and the next it was moving counter-clockwise. It looks equally as real and 3d both ways. This is an amazing little image, though I don't believe it truly represents what side of the brain you use.

Also, I"m right handed.

EDIT: I stared at it a bit longer, and found that I can control which way I see the rotation. This is a crazy picture!

[Dr.Cox]

Haha nipples...



Clockwise.

[Senor_Grunt]

I see both. Am I a alien?...

[OwnZ joO]

I see it going counterclockwise.

[CptnNsan0]

It's extremely upsetting that I can not see it going clockwise like all you other FOOs

[CabooseJr]

Sometimes I see it go counter-clockwise and sometimes clockwise.

I guess I am right and left brain, which means I'm awesome.

Lawl I find that too, and I'm left-handed.. awesome picture

[Th2mods]

Concentrate on the four dots in the middle of the picture for about 30 seconds.
Then close your eyes and tilt your head back. Keep your eyes closed.
When you see a circle of light, continue looking at the circle. What do you see?



got any other pictures like this one?

[Prey]

Haha, I just tried that one out. The circle slowly faded into view, slowly followed by the shapes inside it. Most noticeable though was the heart on the left that came last, it was all inverted colours too.
