59%41%

Right brained.

62% 38%

Did it again to make sure and becuz I could and got 78% right brained this time

Hmmmm...1st time without knowing what was coming up...left brained 75% to 25%
2nd time right brained 66% to 34%

Ho hum...

I'm free of the L/R paradigm.

Hmm 53 right, 47 left

Does it make me a NaN then?

Yes ma'am.

78%L although I saw the spinny woman spin both ways before I'd answered.

100% hippy brain, man.......

47% R, 53% L

I've seen the dancer before, and find it impossible to see her spin widdershins.

I took the test twice and got these results:

L 25% R75%
L 13% R87%

It was the colours one that made the difference the second time. As I'm left-handed anyway the questions about folding your arms, legs and winking are favourable to right brain stuff anyway.

I could look this up if I could be bothered and see if it means anything.

There's no point taking the test a 2nd time, because checking lobe dominance is dependent on instinctive responses, which foreknowledge prevents.

I'm not sure whether you meant you'd look up the different functions of the individual sides, Cheesy.

The only reason I did it the second time was because of the colour test. All the other answers were the same. I got a little confused the first time I did the colour test and on the second run it just fell into place. Just being left-handed is going to go a long way to being more right-brained.

I don't think it's not cut & dried...

WHAT DOES HANDEDNESS HAVE TO DO
WITH BRAIN LATERALIZATION?
The same chap that identified a region of the brain specialized for language Paul Broca (Paul Broca) also suggested that a person's handedness was opposite from the specialized hemisphere (so a right-handed person probably has a left-hemispheric language specialization). But the kick is: this is not a mirror correlation (that is, a majority of left-handers also seem to have a left-hemispheric brain specialization for language abilities). Tricky business, eh? For over 150 years, many researchers have been trying to figure out this robust-but-imperfect correlation between handedness and brain lateralization. We are still trying.

WHO CARES?
The primary historical reason that the hand-brain link was considered important and became a generally-accepted methodology, was because for nearly a century it was the only hint that a neurosurgeon had prior to surgery which hemisphere was specialized for language. Clinicians used handedness as a marker for brain lateralization until the Wada (sodium amytal) Test was introduced in the 1960s.
This association between hand and brain captured the imaginations of researchers because it would be so useful (so easy, so non-invasive, so cheap) to study patterns of brain asymmetries by using a person's handedness as a marker for brain lateralization (direct methods involve neurosurgery, invasive drug testing, or expensive imaging techniques). I have argued, however, that many fundamental problems exist with this methodology, and advocate going back to the drawing board to work out some of these basic problems, rather than continue to embrace 19th-century methodology.

Better understanding how handedness relates to brain function is relevant to many people, among them: academic researchers, medical clinicians, neurological patients, educators and left-handers. Clarifying the relationship between handedness and functional brain specializations, and learning more about the developmental and neurobiological mechanisms that underlie these relationships, may help us better understand a wide range of seemingly unrelated issues such as dyslexia, stuttering, human variation, comparative brain research, developmental neurobiology of the brain, and the origins of human language.

0/0 ??

Both hemispheres of my brain refused to let me take the test. I think it knows I'm on to it...

55/45 but not conclusive cos me mobile freaked out in the colour test and i missed a couple.

The left/right brain divide is not really what people often think it is, both sides of the brain are used, it's only a change in focus.

That's what this says anyhow, I think I agree with it.
