Earlier this week I was reading an article about brains. The article said when you fold your hands, whichever thumb is on top determines if you are right or left brained. I tried it with my family…
- left over right – Grammy, Me, J1 and J3
- right over left – J2 and Eric
Here is the link (pdf) if you want to try it yourself. But our results didn’t really sit well with us so after our knitting group today (where I asked everyone to fold their hands! lol) I did a bit of research online and found a fun quiz – let me know what your results are!
You Are 70% Left Brained, 30% Right 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 am 65% left and 35% right.
When I clasp my hand (fingers interlocking) my left thumb is on top. I took the quiz and it said I am 70% right and 30% left! hmmmm…… I prefer reading to philosophy though.
When I clasp my hands my right thumb is on top. I’m 45% left brain and 55% right brain according to the quiz. Almost an even split. I can see a lot of both descriptions in me so I guess it’s probably fairly accurate.
My left thumb is up, my quiz says 75% left brained, and I’m so far left you can see Obama from here!
