13%...Ya'll wanna see something hilarious.....<br /><br /><br />13% Logical (Your least dominant characteristic)<br />Your Logical Analysis<br /><br />Logical processing is not one of your strengths, so you may tend to rely on a "gut" feeling to help you make your decisions from the information you have received. For example, you will often choose an answer on a test because it "feels" right, and you may be correct. This is due to the fact of your tendency to look for the whole picture but not the details that create it. You can often start with the answer and work your way back to allow yourself to see the process and parts that create the whole. You may find math problems and science experiments difficult because of this.<br /><br /><br />20% Intuitive (Your least dominant characteristic)<br /><br />Your Intuitive Analysis<br /><br />When you process information using this method, you do not rely on "gut" feelings but take the information and put it together piece by piece to form your conclusions. You often look at all of the different bits of information before piecing together your solution. You probably excel in such tasks as solving math problems and performing science experiments, because the intuitive method is not needed.<br /><br /><br />So I am apparently neither logical NOR intuitive.

I could ha...Left Brain-44% <br />Right Brain-56%<br /><br />Angie,<br />I could have told you that you were (mostly) left brained just by the way you write. It took me the longest time to figure out why I generally don't like to read books written by men (I rarely complete the books I start to read) and it usually has nothing to do with the content - but its the style of writing - how the words are put on the page - and I finally figured out that I prefer right-brained writers. I figured you weren't completely left brained (cause I can finish reading your books!) but there is a noticeable difference in your writing style.Lesliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05648816340111618869noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13498449.post-40150582151693525372010-08-11T15:36:15.872-04:002010-08-11T15:36:15.872-04:00I'm 0% reality based.

This does not excite me.<br /><br /> Left Brain Right Brain <br />41% 59% <br /><br /><br /><br />You are more right-brained than left-brained. The right side of your brain controls the left side of your body. In addition to being known as right-brained, you are also known as a creative thinker who uses feeling and intuition to gather information. You retain this information through the use of images and patterns. You are able to visualize the "whole" picture first, and then work backwards to put the pieces together to create the "whole" picture. Your thought process can appear quite illogical and meandering. The problem-solving techniques that you use involve free association, which is often very innovative and creative. The routes taken to arrive at your conclusions are completely opposite to what a left-brained person would be accustomed. You probably find it easy to express yourself using art, dance, or music. Some occupations usually held by a right-brained person are forest ranger, athlete, beautician, actor/actress, craftsman, and artist.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13498449.post-17298407021001671952010-08-11T11:12:00.169-04:002010-08-11T11:12:00.169-04:00Well, I'm opposite of all you.

However, it was VERY wrong on two categories, saying I was not good with sequences or with symbols and probably had a hard time memorizing vocab words and math forumulas. This is laughably untrue as I am a vocab queen. However, the rest was amazingly accurate.Sara E.

What's with that skating judge thing? I got it too. Not so much.<br /><br />Maybe that's why I like historical fiction. I stick to the facts but can make up the in-between things history doesn't say.<br /><br />Thanks, Angie, that was fun.Loretta Oakeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10789733673839280045noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13498449.post-35762808952457576002010-08-11T10:00:31.918-04:002010-08-11T10:00:31.918-04:0064% Left, 36% right.

I was going to answer Ruthie's question by saying I create on a schedule. :-) <br /><br />But Clyde's right--my books--even the most far-fetched--are reality based, and that's pure left brain material. I'd truly have a hard time writing fantasy, and nothing in me even wants to try. I'l leave that to the right brains. <br /><br />AngieAngelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15745389922246602752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13498449.post-91445125278528631692010-08-11T09:15:42.741-04:002010-08-11T09:15:42.741-04:0056 Left, 44 Right.

Fun Test! <br /><br />Re: Ruthie's query, your books have a lot of research and analytical thinking in them. Your creativity comes in the presentation.
