55 Left / 45 Right

by Kristina Chew, PhD on September 12th, 2006

55% left-brained, 45% right-brained, that is: That is how left/right-brained I am, according to this blogthing survey:

Are You Right or Left Brained?
The left side of your brain controls verbal ability, attention to detail, and reasoning. ~ Left brained people are good at communication and persuading others. ~If you’re left brained, you are likely good at math and logic.
 ~ Your left brain prefers dogs, reading, and quiet.   

The right side of your brain is all about creativity and flexibility. ~ Daring and intuitive, right brained people see the world in their unique way. ~ If you’re right brained, you likely have a talent for creative writing and art. ~ Your right brain prefers day dreaming, philosophy, and sports.

I must note, I am not fond of dogs, nor am I good at logic.

(With regards to Kevin at Left Brain/Right Brain.)

    LOL - I got the same results!

    I should note that while I like dogs and love reading and doing math/logic puzzles, I’m also very creative. ;)

    Very interesting. I tested as 35% left-brained /65% right-brained. There were actually a lot of questions for which the answer I would LIKE to give was not one of the answers provided… must be a right-brained thing.

    Me too, mom-nos—or when I could imagine a 3rd response!

    I like running but organized sports and me do not mix.

    Jannalou, makes me wonder which quesdtions we answered the same…..

    So if I’m a verbal/linguistic who is good at organizing and reasoning and likes rabbits, where does that leave me? :)

    45 left/55 right for me. But I have to agree with mom-nos and Kristina that some of the choices left me a little confounded. I think most of the 45 on the left is devoted to our dog.

    The dog/cat question is still bedeviling me….

    Oh great, I was 50/50. I always thought I was a “right brainer” for sure. A true lefty, although I have always golfed and swung bats right. Hmmmmm…what does that mean?
