All tests - Personality profiles - Brain dominance

Which side of your brain is dominant?
 
Note the characteristics which apply to you.

Then look at the answer key and check to see which characteristics are left brain (L) and which right brain (R).

Sum them up and discover whether you are left brain or right brain dominant.

 
1. I am usually late for my appointments.
2. I make gestures with my hands when I talk.
3. I usually guess the time correctly.
4. I like to read the instructions when I buy something new.
5.. I often catch myself day dreaming.
6. I find it easier to remember names instead of faces.
7. When someone asks me a question I turn my head to the left.
8. I like to set goals for myself and organize my time.
9. I work better when I listen to my favorite music or radio station.
10. “Hey, aren’t you listening?, is a question I am frequently asked.
11. I pay attention to what is being said rather than how it is said.
12. I analyze the pros and cons when making an important decision.
13. A messy desk is a sign of genius.
14. When I have many things to do I begin with the easy ones.
15. I write my holiday greeting cards early.
16. I approach new tasks by relating them to accomplished ones.
 

Sum up your responses from the answer key below. Do not award points for the opposite side if you did not answer affirmatively to a question.

Example, question 13: A messy desk is a sign of genius.

From the answer key below, question 13 corresponds to 'right brain' or 'R'. If you believe a messy desk is a sign of genius, award a point for 'R'. You should not award a point for 'L', if you do not believe that a messy desk is a sign of genius.

Your score shouldn't exceed 8, and could be as low as 0, for either or both 'R' and 'L'.
 
Answer key:
1. R

2. R

3. L

4. L

5. R

6. L

7. R

8. L

9. R

10. R

11. L

12. L

13. R

14. L

15. L

16. R

 


Left brain individuals are analytical, articulate and to the point. They like identifying details and are more logical than intuitive. Left brained people have good communication and persuasion skills.

Right brain individuals are intuitive, creative and imaginative. They are flexible and are concerned with the bigger picture rather than details. They are impulsive and spontaneous and do not like time limits. They have difficulty explaining ideas verbally and prefer illustrations to verbal instructions.

I got a tie 5 and 5 but its pretty consistent with other tests. I think I am usually R brained but part of me wants to be L brained.

For example, I AM late for appointments so I write down "R". I DON'T guess the time right so I don't write down "L", I go to next question that applies to me & write the letter corresponding to it. Then whatever letter u have the most of is your answer.

The way u answer it is by this: for all the questions that apply to u, write down the letter given for those numbers only. Skip the answers that don't apply to u. Tally up all the R's & L's u have & u have ur answer.

I don't get how you answer it. Are the answers out of 16. Or is it out of those you marked yes to and got right? Or does it even matter.
10 = L, 6 = R
Or 4 = L, 2 = R
As you can see, this does not affect me. I'm a lefty. But it could affect others...

Oh I got a primer number, 5 for both. Curiously, I tend to be very analitical and find rationality in things, but other times I just let me go and pursue the beaties of life.

7 for Left
9 for Right

I guess it's sort of even but I have a huge problem with speaking publicly which is probably why I am more to the right.
