Right and left brain test. How to find out which hemisphere of your brain is most developed

All people, according to their thinking, are divided into right-hemispheric and left-hemispheric individuals, i.e. in each person one of the hemispheres dominates. We present to your attention a fairly simple, but at the same time the most reliable test for determining the dominant hemisphere of the brain.

1. Interlace your fingers into a lock.
If the thumb of the left hand is the top one, write the letter “L” on a piece of paper, if the thumb of the right hand is the letter “P”.

2. Aim at an invisible target.
If for this you use the left eye, closing the right one, write the letter "L", if vice versa - "P".

3. Cross your arms over your chest, assuming the pose of Napoleon.
If the left hand is lying on top, mark it with the letter "L", if with the right hand - with the letter "P".

4. Applaud.
If you hit with your left palm on your right, then this is the letter "L", if the right palm is more active - the letter "P".

Now evaluate the resulting result according to this scheme:
"PPPP" (100% right-handed) - orientation to stereotypes, conservatism, conflict-free, no desire to quarrel and argue.
"PPPL" - one of the most striking character traits - indecision.
"PPLP" is a rather pronounced contact type of character. Coquetry, determination, sense of humor, artistry. (More often in women...)
"PPLL" - this combination is not often found. The character is close to the previous one, only softer.
"PLPP" - an analyst, with simultaneous softness. Gets used slowly, cautious in relationships, tolerance and some coldness. (More often in women...)
"PLPL" is a very rare combination. Defenselessness, susceptibility to various influences. (More often in women...)
"LPP" - this combination is common. Emotionality, lack of perseverance and perseverance in solving important issues, susceptibility to other people's influences, good adaptability, easy contact, friendliness.
"LPPL" - more significant than in the previous case, softness of character and naivety.
"LLPP" - friendliness and simplicity, some dispersion of interests and a tendency to introspection.
"LLPL" - gentleness, innocence, gullibility.
"LLLP" - energy, emotionality, determination.
"LLLL" (100% left-handed) - "anti-conservative type of character." The ability to take a fresh look at the old. Strong emotions, pronounced individualism to selfishness, stubbornness, sometimes reaching isolation.
"LPLP" is a very strong character type. But the inability to change your point of view. As well as perseverance in achieving goals and vigor.
"LPLL" is a similarity to the previous type, only it is not so unstable and prone to introspection. Has some difficulty making friends.
"PLLP" - easy character, ability to avoid conflicts, ease in making acquaintances and communication, frequent change of hobbies.
"PLLL" - independence and inconstancy, the desire to do everything yourself.

If you get more letters "P", then the left hemisphere dominates, and vice versa.

If the answers are evenly divided, we offer you an additional test:


If the girl in the picture rotates clockwise, then in this moment you have more active left hemisphere of the brain (logic, analysis). If it turns counterclockwise, then you have an active right hemisphere (emotions and intuition).

Areas of specialization of the left and right hemispheres of the brain.

Left hemisphere:
Logical thinking is the main area of ​​specialization of the left hemisphere.
The left hemisphere of the brain is responsible for language abilities. It controls speech, reading and writing abilities, remembers facts, names, dates and their spelling.

Analytical thinking:
The left hemisphere is responsible for logic and analysis. It analyzes all the facts. Numbers and mathematical symbols are also recognized by the left hemisphere.

Literal understanding of words:
The left hemisphere can only understand the literal meaning of words.

Mathematical Ability: Numbers and symbols are also recognized by the left hemisphere. Logical analytical approaches, which are necessary for solving mathematical problems, are also a product of the work of the left hemisphere.

Right hemisphere
Intuition is the main area of ​​specialization of the right hemisphere.

Spatial orientation: The right hemisphere is responsible for the perception of location and spatial orientation in general.

Musicality: Musical abilities, as well as the ability to perceive music, depend on the right hemisphere.

Imagination: The right hemisphere gives us the ability to dream and fantasize. With the help of the right hemisphere, we can make up different stories.

Artistic Ability: The right hemisphere is responsible for the ability to visual arts.

Emotions: Although emotions are not a product of the functioning of the right hemisphere, it is associated with them more closely than the left.

Mystic: The right hemisphere is responsible for mysticism and religiosity.

Dreams: The right hemisphere is also responsible for dreams.

The human brain is an incredible thing. How many abilities he hides! Do you know that a person can tickle himself mentally, that it is more difficult for him to look at an image than to play dominoes, lotto, chess. The human brain analyzes objects much longer than a future holiday in the Maldives represents. Interestingly, computer games teach not to get hung up on one thing. Shooters, quests disperse attention and allow you to react with lightning speed. By daily training the brain, you can achieve brilliant results in any field: in the humanities or mathematics, in sports, cooking, develop memory, motor skills, learn to juggle and add the Rubik's Cube.

At what age is it best to develop the brain?

It is better to load yourself with studies, sports training, learning languages, playing the piano, reading encyclopedias, dictionaries and other things in the period from 2 to 11 years. Then there is the most rapid development of the brain. The best way to develop it is to fully immerse yourself in an unfamiliar field of activity.

How do you know which hemisphere is dominant?

To test your abilities, you can find out which hemisphere prevails over the other with a simple test. A picture of a spinning girl has already spread all over the Internet. This check was invented by creative designer Nabieki Kayahara. At home, he feels at ease, because Japan has the largest percentage of people with an IQ above 111.

Take a look at the spinning female silhouette. Is the girl spinning clockwise or counterclockwise? Left or right direction will determine the ability of your brain. But before you know the result, try scrolling it in the opposite direction. Any imagination can do it.

“Right-handed” (clockwise) movement indicates that it is better developed, “left-handed”, respectively, left. Statistics show that a larger percentage of people use the left hemisphere.


If you can't change direction, take a look at the next picture, which consists of 3 parts. Throw a glance to the left, to the right, then the central "dancer" will be able to spin in both directions.


The possibilities of the left hemisphere

This part of the brain is excellent at processing verbal information. From here, a person is given a talent for learning languages, controlling his speech, the ability to write, work as a journalist, announcer. The left hemisphere remembers important events, tries to keep facts, dates, names and surnames in mind. These are your analytical and logical abilities. The digital series, formulas, physical schemes and even the valency of chemical elements - all this is on the "shoulders" of the left hemisphere. If you have developed it, then you like to organize your life “on the shelves”, act consistently.

The possibilities of the right hemisphere

Non-verbal information is well processed by this hemisphere. Symbolism, fantasy "rules" here. With a developed right hemisphere, you see dreamers, writers, science fiction writers, people of creative professions, writers of incredible stories in front of you since childhood. Such people are drawn to fine arts, to music, run to art departments, finish acting courses, etc.

At Yale University, they conducted another test and found that people who can change the movement of a spinning girl for “one or two” have a very high IQ (from 160).

In children, verbal-logical thinking is not yet developed. As soon as they pick up a pen or pencil, try to repeat the letters of the number, you can notice the mirror image of the characters. This is exactly how, at the age of 2 to 6 years, the brain works in babies, the hemispheres “compete” for the right to receive leadership. You can also instantly determine whether you are right-handed or left-handed using the following tests:

  • put your fingers in the "lock". Is the thumb on top of the right or left hand?
  • Cross your arms over your chest, which one is on top?

Such asymmetry of the hemispheres will indirectly influence the choice of your profession.

And now let's move on to a test that allows you to determine which hemisphere of the brain dominates in a given person or this person has a happy property of balance between both hemispheres, as well as to establish the strengths and weaknesses of the predominance of one or another hemisphere.

As a reminder, for most people, the left hemisphere of the brain deals with analysis, operates in sequence and logic mode, and controls language functions, academic acquisition, and rationality. The right hemisphere is characterized by creative thinking and intuition. It is in it, as a rule, that the ideas of works of art and musical works are born.

The proposed test is aimed at identifying the relationship between the roles of the functions of the cerebral hemispheres. For this, four signs are used, which are innate and, as a rule, do not change until the end of life. True, with one amendment: with strong excitement, the leading hemispheres can change roles. Therefore, for the purity of testing, a certain tranquility of your mood is required (classical music is turned on).

Test "Right or left hemisphere?"

So let's get started!

1. Interlace your fingers several times, and you will notice that the same finger is always on top. An emotional person will have a left finger on top, with a predominance of an analytical mindset - the right one.

2. Try, taking a pencil or pen, on an outstretched hand to combine it (her) with any vertical line (door, window). Now alternately close the left and right eyes. When you close the “leading” eye, the object that you hold in your hand will move relative to the aiming line. The right leading eye speaks of a firm, persistent, more aggressive character, the left - of a soft and compliant. 3. If, when interlacing the arms on the chest, the left hand is at the top, then you are capable of coquetry, the right hand is prone to simplicity and innocence. 4. If you feel comfortable clapping with your right hand, you can talk about a decisive character, with your left - you often hesitate before making a decision.

Evaluation of results: If the results obtained are denoted by the letters P (right) and L (left), depending on the leading eye or hand, a combination of four letters will be obtained (one of 16 possible combinations). Each combination corresponds to a psychological mini-portrait. The difference between your own idea of ​​your person and the description of a mini-portrait should not surprise you, because in fact these are theoretical types, and each of us is always somewhere on their borders.

Now let's decipher the types! PPPP- the type is characterized by conservatism, orientation to the generally accepted

opinion (on a stereotype). He does not like to conflict, argue and quarrel. PPPL- the defining character trait of this type is indecision. PPLP- the type is characterized by coquetry, determination, sense of humor, artistry. When communicating with him, humor and determination are needed. This is a very contact type of character. It occurs most frequently in women.

PPLL- a rare type of character. Close to the previous one, but softer. There is some contradiction between indecision (left applause) and firmness of character (right leading eye). PLPP- a type of character that combines an analytical mindset and gentleness. More common in women - the type of "business" woman. Slow addiction, caution, tolerance in relationships and some coldness. PLPL- the weakest and rarest type of character. Owners of this nature are defenseless, subject to various influences. They are usually found in women. LPPP- this combination is very common. The main feature is emotionality, combined with insufficient perseverance. The type lends itself to someone else's influence, and this allows you to adapt to various living conditions. Happy in friends, easily converges with people. LPPL- characterized by softness, naivety. It requires a special, attentive attitude towards itself - the type of "little queen". LLPP- the type is characterized by friendliness and simplicity, some dispersion of interests, a tendency to introspection. LLPL- in the nature of the type, simplicity, gentleness, gullibility prevail. A very rare type, almost never found in men. LLLP- emotional, energetic and decisive type. But often hastily makes decisions that bring serious complications. The additional brake mechanism is very important. Men with this character are less emotional. LLLL- a person with an anti-conservative character. Able to look at old things in a new way. Characterized by emotionality, selfishness, stubbornness, sometimes turning into isolation. LPLP- the strongest type of character. It's hard to convince him of anything. It is difficult to change your point of view. But at the same time, he is energetic, stubbornly achieving his goals. LPLL- very similar to the previous type of character. The same perseverance in achieving goals. The owners of this character are stable people, it is sometimes impossible to convince them. They are prone to introspection, finding new friends with difficulty. PLLP- the type has an easy character. Happily knows how to avoid conflicts, likes to travel. Finds friends easily. However, he often changes his hobbies. PLLL- the type is inherent in inconstancy and independence, the desire to do everything yourself. The ability to analyze helps to successfully solve complex problems. Usually seems gentle, but becomes demanding and even cruel when it comes down to it.

This is really a fundamentally new psychophysiological test.

This test helps determine which side of your brain is more active. The test shows your current state. And yet, it is not only and not so much the picture that rotates in one direction or another, but the perceptual image of the moving space formed by your brain. In short, the girl is actually spinning in your head!! It is very cool! You determine the strengths of your brain.

This is especially true for ambidexters (lat. ambi - double; dextrum - right). That is, people who simultaneously have right hemisphere and left hemisphere asymmetry, dominance in the work of the brain.

Ambidextrous- this is a special group of people with potentially outstanding abilities [they may or may not be realized]. Suffice it to say that there are many such people among the seids - the direct descendants of the Prophet Muhammad, among the Levites and kohanim, and other prominent people. That is, these are people with potentially unique abilities. If you have landed in this company - congratulations!! :-))

Please take this test as seriously as possible. It can be repeated from time to time. I do it myself. With the dominance of the left hemisphere, the "logicians" girl rotates to the right. With the dominance of the right hemisphere, "artistic eidetics", the girl suddenly begins to rotate to the left. In ambidexters - when the head is tilted in the appropriate direction - then to the right, then to the left!

Instructions for the test by Vladimir Pygach ( Copyright © 2009 ) for the presence of ambidexterity

Introduction

This test shows your state and features of perception of moving perceptual (subjective) spaces that your brain processes and “sees” at the moment. This is especially true for ambidexters (lat. ambi - double; dextrum - right). That is, people who simultaneously have the right hemisphere and left hemisphere of the brain.

Ambidextrous and "two-armed" are not the same thing, although they are close concepts.

People can be right-handed or left-handed:

  • by eye movements
  • on the leading eye (when shooting, for example).
  • And also through the auditory channel (to which ear the handset is applied),
  • by hand,
  • on the leg
  • rotation of the axis of the heart on the electrocardiogram, etc.

That is, most likely, you are a combination of these individual communication channels ...

Testing

Get comfortable.

So, in the picture you see the silhouette of a rotating figure.

1st stage. Psychological setting.

The psychological tuning of your brain lasts approximately 2 minutes.

2nd stage. Actually testing.

  • If the figure steadily rotates only clockwise, it means that the left hemisphere dominates in you, the left hemisphere activity of the brain prevails. And this is logic, counting, the ability to speak and express thoughts.
  • Rotation only counterclockwise means that the right hemisphere dominates in you, and predominantly right hemisphere activity prevails - eidetics, intuition, imaginative thinking, musicality, a sense of orientation in space and time.
  • If the figure alternately rotates in one direction or the other, this is a sign of ambidexterity, that is, the work of both the right and left hemispheres of the brain.

For some, such a switching of silhouette rotation occurs when the head is tilted to the right, then to the left, and vice versa.

For others, a change in the direction of rotation is noted when the gaze is concentrated on the face, then it is defocused, and vice versa.

Or, alternatively, a translation of the gaze by about 15 degrees. left-down - rotates to the left. Translation of the gaze to 15 degrees. right-down - rotates to the right.

Sometimes - it is useful to cover the lower part of the torso of a spinning girl with your hand - it works better.

P.S. I passed this test a long time ago, about five years ago ... then my girlfriend alternately spun to the left, then to the right ... I think it will be interesting for you to learn about a new facet in you))

I hug everyone and thank you for being together!

As you know, our brain consists of two hemispheres: left and right. At the same time, the right hemisphere mainly "serves" the left side of the body: it receives most of the information from the left eye, ear, left arm, leg, etc. and transmits commands, respectively, to the left arm, leg. The left hemisphere serves the right side.

As you know, our brain consists of two hemispheres: left and right.

At the same time, the right hemisphere mainly “serves” the left side of the body.: receives most of the information from the left eye, ear, left hand, foot, etc. and transmits commands, respectively, to the left arm, leg.

The left hemisphere serves the right side.

Usually one of the hemispheres in a person is dominant, which is reflected in individual personality traits. For example, left-brained people are more drawn to science. Right hemispheric people are more inclined to engage in art or areas of activity that require individual imaginative solutions. The vast majority of great creators - composers, writers, poets, musicians, artists, etc. - "right-brained" people.

How to determine the dominant hemisphere

Test 1

Name colors, not what is written. The right hemisphere of the brain recognizes colors, the left hemisphere reads. In this exercise, the hemispheres are balanced and their interaction is trained. To be safe, the test starts and ends with 'correct' word-color combinations.

Test 2

Optical effects - light and shade form a three-dimensional image. In a picture or photograph, you can see a lunar crater, and turning 180 degrees - a mountain, and this is not only an illusion, but a feature of vision, a visual habit of the eye that the daylight of the sun goes from top to bottom.

Lunar craters (first photo). When the photo is rotated 180 degrees (second photo), “mountains” appear in the picture.

Test 3

Optical illusions (optical illusion, glitches) - image rotation, flickering and other visual illusions. If you look too long, there is an aftereffect (looking away, on a white background, you can see the same picture).

The usual, but regular (morning and afternoon) training of the vestibular apparatus (turns, tilts, rotations, pulling up, standing on toes and looking up) - develops a sense of balance and coordination of movements, as well as strengthens the psyche and stabilizes certain human field structures (stability the so-called astral body, etc.)

In case of an increase in blood pressure, the appearance of headaches and dizziness during training, temporarily focus on both points E36 (zu-san-li), or perform a light acupressure to align your energy along the meridians. Grounding in time - everyday, household chores, physical education and sports, walks in nature.

Note: look at the pictures "Optical Illusions" - no longer than 15 minutes in a row, so as not to shake your psyche.

Test 4

According to the rezulattas, there is an example of one English unviertiset, not ieemt zachneiya, in the cookery, the bkuvy in the salt are right. Galvone, chotby preav and ploendya bkvuy blyi on the site. Osatlyne bkuvy mgout seldovt in a plonm bsepordyak, everything is torn tkest chtaitseya without straps. Pichryony egoto means that we don’t read every single letter from a distance, but everything is a solvo clique.

Test 5

What do you see?

If a girl - you have developed the right hemisphere of the brain. If the old woman is left.

Test 6

Find the male head in this picture (look for no more than 3 minutes).

If you have completed the task:

    in less than 3 seconds, then your right hemisphere of your brain is better developed than most people;

    within 1 minute is a normal result;

    if within 1–3 min. - your right hemisphere is poorly developed, you need to eat more meat protein;

    if the search took you more than 3 minutes - not good ...

Test 7

Below is a picture, when considering which, depending on which hemisphere of the brain you have active, the object will move in a certain direction. In this case, either clockwise or counterclockwise. So…

If you see this girl moving clockwise, then your right hemisphere is active at the moment. If it moves counterclockwise, then you are using the left hemisphere. Some may see it moving in both directions.

Try to make it move in the opposite direction using the other hemisphere. Can you do this.

Look to the side and look at the girl again, after a while she will start moving in the opposite direction. Also, some people have discovered that you can look at her legs and she will again change direction.

Experiments have shown that two different areas of the brain are responsible for different types of mental activity.

Usually people use only one hemisphere, which is characteristic of their type of thinking. But there are individuals who work with both hemispheres.

There are schools that favor one hemisphere over the other. So schools that develop the left hemisphere focus on logical thinking, analysis and accuracy. Whereas the right brain school focuses on aesthetics, feelings and creativity.

And note:

Areas of specialization of the left hemisphere:

Processing verbal information: The left hemisphere of the brain is responsible for your language abilities. This hemisphere controls speech and the ability to read and write.

It also remembers facts, names, dates and their spelling.

Analytical thinking: The left hemisphere is responsible for logic and analysis. It analyzes all the facts.

Literal understanding of words: The left hemisphere can only understand the literal meaning of words.

Consistent thinking: Information is processed by the left hemisphere sequentially in stages.

Mathematical Ability: Numbers and symbols are also recognized by the left hemisphere.

Logical, analytical approaches, which are necessary for solving mathematical problems, are also a product of the work of the left hemisphere.

Control over the movements of the right half of the body. When you raise your right hand, it means that the command to raise it came from the left hemisphere.

Areas of specialization of the right hemisphere:

Processing non-verbal information: The right hemisphere specializes in processing information, which is expressed not in words, but in symbols and images.

Parallel information processing: Unlike the left hemisphere, which processes information only in a clear sequence, the right hemisphere can process a lot of different information at the same time. It is able to consider the problem as a whole without applying analysis.

The right hemisphere also recognizes faces, and thanks to him we can perceive the totality of traits as a single whole.

Spatial orientation: The right hemisphere is responsible for the perception of location and spatial orientation in general. It is thanks to the right hemisphere that you can navigate the terrain and make mosaic puzzle pictures.

Musicality: Musical abilities, as well as the ability to perceive music, depend on the right hemisphere, although, however, the left hemisphere is responsible for musical education.

Metaphors: With the help of the right hemisphere, we understand metaphors and the results of the work of another's imagination. Thanks to him, we can understand not only the literal meaning of what we hear or read. For example, if someone says: “He is hanging on my tail,” then it is the right hemisphere that will understand exactly what this person wanted to say.

Imagination: The right hemisphere gives us the ability to dream and fantasize. With the help of the right hemisphere, we can make up different stories. By the way, the question "What if ..." also asks the right hemisphere.

Artistic Ability: The right hemisphere is responsible for the ability to visual arts.

Emotions: Although emotions are not a product of the functioning of the right hemisphere, it is associated with them more closely than the left.

Sex: The right hemisphere is responsible for sex, unless, of course, you are too concerned with the very technique of this process.

Mystic: The right hemisphere is responsible for mysticism and religiosity.

Dreams: The right hemisphere is also responsible for dreams.

Controls the movements of the left half of the body: When you raise your left hand, it means that the command to raise it came from the right hemisphere.published If you have any questions on this topic, ask them to specialists and readers of our project

The human brain consists of two hemispheres, each of them is responsible for special parts of the brain. Logical thinking is produced in large part in the left hemisphere. The right hemisphere is responsible for the knowledge of spatial relationships, emotional content, non-verbal communication. Based on these facts, people are often divided into creative or logically located.

It's amazing how many different skills and talents people have. Some people are math geniuses, others can easily remember names and phone numbers, others are surprised by their creativity. All this is controlled by the brain. It should also be noted that people cannot be divided into people with a pure dominant right or left hemisphere. Both hemispheres of the brain are fully functional, but only one of them is dominant.

Facts about the left and right hemispheres of the brain in a scientific context are very often a topic for discussion and are always severely criticized. Further brain research will provide us with many more discoveries in the next few years.

Test to determine the dominant hemisphere online.

On the Internet you will find a lot of different tests about the hemispheres of the brain: on the one hand, these are scientific tests, on the other hand, these are fun tests that will tell you about your brain in a playful way. The latter are used mainly for entertainment, but despite this they tell interesting information about which of the hemispheres is dominant in you. Test your brain and learn interesting facts about yourself and your thought process.

Human brain - Structure and functions.

The human brain consists of about 100 billion nerve cells. This body needs a lot of energy. 43% of all human energy is taken by the brain. The weight of the brain of an adult is about 1200 g - 1400 g, and this is only 3% of the total human body weight. The brain of a man is usually larger than that of women, but this fact does not affect intelligence.

Which hemisphere of your brain is best developed and how does it help you, or, conversely, interfere with your life? It is known that left hemisphere responsible for logical, analytical thinking, mathematical abilities. Right hemisphere responsible for intuition, creative skills, imagination, emotions, artistic taste, daydreaming. So what dominates you the most? Find out in the rapid personality psychology test.

To pass this test, you will need to do some simple experiments with your body.

  • Interlace your fingers into a lock

If the thumb of the left hand remains at the top, then write the letter “L” on a piece of paper. If the thumb of the right hand is "P".

  • Imagine you are aiming at a distant target.

If you use your left eye while squinting your right eye, then write the letter "L", if vice versa - "P".

  • Put your hands on your chest

If the left hand will lie on top, then write "L", if the right hand, then "P".

  • clap your hands

If the left palm is more active, then put the letter “L”, if the right one, then “P”.

Test results

If you get more "P" letters, then the left hemisphere dominates (since the left side responds to the right hemisphere, and the right side to the left). If you have more "L", then your right hemisphere works better.

That's not all. For an accurate personality analysis, you can still decipher your notes from letters.

PPPP You are 100% right handed. In life, focus on stereotypes. Conservative, non-conflict.

PPPL- your bright feature is indecision.

PPLP- you are distinguished by artistry, you know how to flirt, joke. Decisive person.
