Don't think this relates directly to any economic topic but it is a fun test. If you remember the 70s (like me, and probably your parents) you may be able to hear Elton John's "Tiny Dancer" as you watch her spin. Very annoying.

Wow, that thing really bothered me. I got it to go both ways. Anti-clockwise first though.

I got it to go both ways after a while, but I saw clockwise first. I always thought I was left brained, but I guess I was wrong.

hey i like that song...but anyways
i saw it clockwise...i never saw it counterclockwise..but i took a test similar to this and i already knew i was more right brained..

it keeps changing on me... when i first looked at it, she was spinning clockwise. then i started reading a little bit and looked back and she was going counterclockwise. weiird. i guess i think with both sides of my brain..?

I think the dancer is definitely going clockwise. It really doesn't suprise me that I am right brained, for I've known that for a while.

At first, I had a hard time taking this little "test" seriously because I was pretty sure that there was no real trick to the dancer. I simply thought that there was a set pattern to this trick until I got my parents to look at it and tell me which direction it went for them. My mom claimed that the picture was turning clockwise while my dad found the picture to turn counterclockwise. I flipped back and forth between the two and as the direction of the dancer switched for me and my dad occasionally, my mom claimed that the direction was switching in accordance to what my dad and I thought. Overall, this was pretty interesting and a little weird.

I saw it going both ways, but I saw it going counter-clockwise first.

I can see her going clockwise and counter-clockwise. I use to think that I was mostly left brained but lately I think that I'm more right brained.

Thats a weird test. I saw it move counterclockwise, at first. It took me forever, but I was finnally able to see it move clockwise. I think the computer randomly picks which way it moves.

I am 100% right-brained. i cant get it to go anti-clockwise at all. thats irritating to me b/c i really want to see it that way!

at first it was clockwise but now it looks like it keeps changing directions to me and never turns all the way around.

When I first saw the "tiny dancer" she was spinning clockwise-- and I thought I was a square but apparently I'm much wore wordly than details and facts-- on my second glance I noticed she was spinning the other way. To be more accurate I must admit that I was shocked and then with my excitement she went back to the original clockwise spin. After that I tried to focus upon spinning her back the other way and I discovered one of two things: I'm so intelligent that I had a hard time tricking myself, or that I'm so hard headed that I cannot even convince myself to believe me. It was also difficult because my mind kept wondering if Mr. McKay was relating the dancer to the seventies and Elton John because her nudity reminded him of his youthful years amongst free-love hippies; I've never been so distracted and repulsed so completely before. Perhaps, instead of this image telling us about the operation of our brains it is really separating those who crave a fun distraction from those serious economics students. Economics is serious already; who cares if we have a bit of fun with something that does not relate directly(meaning really has absolutely no significant or worthwhile connection) with anything economic? Wow, I'm amazed that I could write so much on something that noone else seemed able to expand on? Oh no, what does that say about me?
Interesting...I was definitely right brained. I stared at the thing forever and never could see it going the other direction.

I saw the dancer going clockwise first, so I read the right brain description. But when I looked back she was going the other way. She just kept changing. But I'm guessing I'm right brained since I saw her going clockwise first.

I first saw counter-clockwise but was able to change it back and forth. I think the shadow below the girl has a lot to do with it. Or maybe my brain just hurts right now.
I saw the dancer going clockwise and could not make it go the other way.

okay...so when i first looked at her, she was spinning counter clockwise i think?
i cant even remember now...i got myself all confused after a while because she kept changing directions...
i guess i think with both sides of my brain!
she switches...

When I first saw the dancer, she was going clockwise. After reading the differences between right and left brained people, I looked back at the dancer and she was dancing counter-clockwise. Don't know what that means

right brained definitely. Guess im not as special as I thought i was. I am, however, left-handed. And so is Mr. Mckay (yes i've noticed). So what does that really tell us? Do are hands correlate with our brains? I always thought I was more of the "big picture" and risk taking kind of guy. Maybe thats just what we all want to think. Left-brained seems too boring; so yes. I am right brained. A ruling imagination and a fantasy based functionng process seems much more "exciting".
this is witchcraft.

Right-brained...although I started seeing the dancer spin both ways at the end.
Leah B. - 2nd
I cannot see counter clockwise! Ahhhhhh... I suppose I am very right-brained. And I do hear "Tiny Dancer" by Elton John.
I think this is some kind of trick..
every time i look at her she is going a different way!

At first I saw it spinning counter-clockwise, but after awhile I got really good at seeing it turn both ways. Its really weird, I can't figure out how it can do that!
Rebecca S. 5th
I saw it going clockwise so i guess i'm right brained... but i always thought i was left brained.
James M. 2nd
That is really neat, i can change the rotation of the figure but i wonder who came up with this test.
I saw her going opposite directions every time i looked at it, so i think its gotta be some kind of trick.

That was a really confusing video. I saw it going counter-clockwise and then it was going clockwise. I kept switching on me until I finally clicked out of it. Confusing. So I guess I am more right brained.
