How the Scales are Structured

example score

8/36

Left (A) (L)

This scale measures the degree to which your learning and information processing relies on left-hemisphere analytical, logical, and verbal tendencies.

Low left-hemisphere reliance

Moderate left-hemisphere reliance

High left-hemisphere reliance

0 – 12: Low left-hemisphere reliance | 13 – 24: Moderate left-hemisphere reliance | 25 – 36: High left-hemisphere reliance

A score of 8 falls in the low range, suggesting you rely less on left-hemisphere analytical and verbal strategies compared with other approaches.

example score

18/36

Right (B) (R)

Measures the extent to which you tend to rely on right-hemisphere processing, such as intuitive, figurative, and creative thinking when learning and remembering.

Lower right-hemisphere reliance

Balanced / mixed reliance

Higher right-hemisphere dominance

0 – 12: Lower right-hemisphere reliance | 13 – 24: Balanced / mixed reliance | 25 – 36: Higher right-hemisphere dominance

A score of 18 falls in the Balanced / mixed reliance range, suggesting you use right-hemisphere intuitive and imaginative processing alongside other approaches rather than as a strong dominant style.

example score

26/36

Integrated (A+B) (I)

Measures how strongly you integrate both brain hemispheres when processing and learning new information.

Less integrated

Balanced integration

Highly integrated

0 – 12: Less integrated | 13 – 24: Balanced integration | 25 – 36: Highly integrated

A score of 26 falls in the Highly integrated range, suggesting you tend to draw on both hemispheres in a flexible, combined way when learning and solving problems.

CLEAR ANSWERS TO COMMON QUESTIONS

Frequently Asked Questions

What does this assessment measure?

It measures preferred learning style and relative reliance on left- versus right-hemisphere processing during learning. The combined result identifies a typical perception–processing pattern.

How long does it take and how many items are included?

Estimated completion time is about 7 minutes. The assessment contains 36 questions.

How should responses be selected?

Select the option that best reflects typical preferences in everyday situations. Use first impressions rather than extended analysis of each item.

What is meant by the combined result?

The combined result summarizes the strongest information intake channel along with the more active hemisphere during learning. This profile can be used to select study methods that match the identified pattern.

Is it appropriate to take the assessment more than once?

A second administration may be used to focus attention on hemisphere-related items and check response consistency. Results should be interpreted as indicative preferences rather than a clinical diagnosis.

About This Assessment

Which Hemisphere of the Brain Is Relied Upon Test - Symptoms and Signs

laterality

This self-report questionnaire is intended to characterize individual preferences in information processing and learning, including perceived reliance on left- versus right-hemisphere–associated styles. Which Hemisphere of the Brain Is Relied Upon is attributed here to Roger W. Sperry and Michael S. Gazzaniga.

The measure consists of 36 items and typically requires about 7 minutes to complete. Items ask respondents to endorse everyday preferences and habitual approaches to taking in, organizing, and recalling information. Scores are commonly interpreted as indicative of relative strengths in verbal-analytic versus visual-holistic tendencies, with the understanding that such labels are heuristic rather than direct indicators of neuroanatomical function.

In applied settings, Which Hemisphere of the Brain Is Relied Upon may be used to support reflective discussion of study strategies and learning habits; results should be integrated with clinical history and other assessment data and should not be used as a standalone diagnostic tool.
