Am i left brained or right brained quiz

This test is based on the left brain/right brain dominance theory. According to this theory “left-brained” and “right-brained” individuals have a huge difference in behavior, personality traits and cognitive strategies.

Human brain is really divided into two halves, or hemispheres. Each of these halves has particular areas control certain functions.

So the left brain is connected to:

  • language learning abilities
  • logical reasoning
  • speech and writing abilities
  • information storage and analysiss
  • math skills

Functions of the right brain:

  • music and rhythm
  • imagination and emotions
  • arts and creativity
  • sexual preferences
  • recognizing faces

The idea of different approaches in teaching people with a different dominant brain became especially popular in the 70s of the last century. Thus, for people with a dominant left hemisphere, appropriate educational programs were developed based on rational and logically substantiated tasks. For “right-brained” people - on creativity and emotions received in the learning process.

How do I know if I am right or left brained?

The theory is that people are either left-brained or right-brained, meaning that one side of their brain is dominant. If you're mostly analytical and methodical in your thinking, the theory says that you're left-brained. If you tend to be more creative or artistic, you're right-brained.

Is left or right brained smarter?

Right Brain Left Brain While it's true that certain mental processes tend to occur in either the right or left hemisphere of the brain, research into the topic has found no evidence that people have stronger networks on one side of the brain or the other.

Are left brained more intelligent?

The left hemisphere of the brain controls learning and information processing. Children who have stronger left-brain functions tend to be more analytical in their thinking and typically perform well academically.

Can I be both left and right brained?

You may have even heard the term “golden brain” used to refer to people who use both sides of their brain equally. This is very similar to how most people are either right handed or left handed, and some people are even ambidextrous!
