THE Right Brain vs Left Brain test ... do you see the dancer turning clockwise or anti-clockwise?
If clockwise, then you use more of the right side of the brain and vice versa.
Most of us would see the dancer turning anti-clockwise though you can try to focus and change the direction; see if you can do it.

She's turning clockwise for me, I stared and stared and stared at it trying to see her going the other way, but I just can't do it. So, I guess I'm seriously right-brained.
My girlfriend are sitting next to each other on the couch, both looking at the laptop: I see clockwise, she sees counter-clockwise. I'm left-handed, she's right-handed. (You know how they say left-handers are right-brained?) Weird! Cool! Thanks!
If you glance to the side and read the article while keeping your eye peripherally on the spinning girl, you can see when it changes from clock-wise to counter clock wise...but you have to make your batin do something different to get it to change back and forth.
