Harry P. Posted May 24, 2015 Posted May 24, 2015 There's another factor that plays a role here that we haven't considered: "handedness." People who are right handed generally are more practical, detail-oriented, numbers and data types, while left-handed people are generally more creative and more into the arts ans things like that. I know that's a generalization and not everyone fits the pattern... but enough do so that the theory came about. The whole "left brain vs. right brain" thing is kind of interesting. BTW... I'm left handed, so you'd think I would have scored somewhere above 50... but I got an even 50 exactly.

Ace-Garageguy Posted May 24, 2015 Posted May 24, 2015 Me bees a lefty too. I thought of that just before taking the test, and then promptly forgot it.
Mike_G Posted May 24, 2015 Posted May 24, 2015 I think left-handedness is more common today than it used to be- left-handedness used to be discouraged in school when I was a kid
Jantrix Posted May 24, 2015 Author Posted May 24, 2015 (edited) Averages range for left handedness from 6-9% of the global populations. That's an awful lot of backwards people. Edited May 24, 2015 by Jantrix
Tom Geiger Posted May 24, 2015 Posted May 24, 2015 I was hoping to get a RHD Harley someday! I kid a friend of mine in the UK about his Harley all the time!

Tom Geiger Posted May 24, 2015 Posted May 24, 2015 I wonder how the numbers break down culturally Okay, how many lefties have a couch in their front yard?
Harry P. Posted May 24, 2015 Posted May 24, 2015 Averages range for left handedness from 6-9% of the global populations. Actually it's 10-11%. Still a small minority, though. But what we lack in numbers we more than make up for in intelligence and good looks...
Harry P. Posted May 24, 2015 Posted May 24, 2015 I don't know about other sports, but in baseball there seems to be a lot higher percentage of lefties than in the general population. Is it because left-handed hitters and pitchers are desirable to have on a team, so more lefties make the big leagues than in other sports? In football there aren't very many left-handed QBs, but in baseball a lot of power hitters (and dominating pitchers) are lefties.
Foxer Posted May 24, 2015 Posted May 24, 2015 I didn't do this right away .. but got a 50% .. I'm happy I'm not a complete dorky engineer eheh

JollySipper Posted June 22, 2015 Posted June 22, 2015 I tried to take the test, I answered the first 3 questions and clicked next, but no more questions came up......
oldnslow Posted June 22, 2015 Posted June 22, 2015 Retook the test a month later, exact same score, should I worry?
Zarana-X Posted June 22, 2015 Posted June 22, 2015 63, although two of the answers I gave should have been, "none of the above".
Russell C Posted June 22, 2015 Posted June 22, 2015 33. And all this time from some other write-up years ago, I thought it was the right-brain that was the organizing side. Meanwhile my chosen field of work was graphic arts, which I still like very much, even though one would think it was on the other end of the artistic intuitive scale. So I must be nuts.
Dave Ambrose Posted June 23, 2015 Posted June 23, 2015 46 for me. Apparently, I'm well-balanced. They clearly don't know me very well.
