Hands

You said your left thumb was on top when you clasped your hands together. Right thumb on top: This suggests the left half of your brain is dominant. Many studies have tried to establish whether there is a relationship between handedness and brain dominance. Some scientists believe that if you are left brain dominant, you would be more verbal and analytical. Left thumb on top: This suggests the right half of your brain is dominant. Some studies theorise that as a right brain dominant person, you may excel in visual, spatial and intuitive processes.

If you scored 0 - 12: You have more of a female brain. Scientists believe that people with a female brain find it more difficult to judge the slope of a line because they're not wired for spatial tasks. In past studies, 65 per cent of people who scored in this range were women. If you scored 13 - 17: You found this test neither hard nor easy. This suggests your brain has male and female traits when it comes to spatial ability. If you scored 18 - 20: You have more of a male brain. On average, men outperform women in this task and those with more mathematical knowledge tend to score quite high as well. In past studies, 60 per cent of the people in this range were men. Interestingly, men's testosterone levels fluctuate through the seasons and studies have shown that men's scores are lower in the spring, when their testosterone levels are at their lowest.

A score of 15 and above suggests you're good at analysing or building systems. Men in general are better at systemising. Scientists are keen to learn more about people who score high or low on both tests. They want to find out whether or not empathising and systemising are linked. Is a possible to make yourself more empathic? Some scientists claim that our empathy and systemising abilities can be traced all the way back to prehistoric times. Find out more.

If you scored 4 - 6: Your result suggests you have a balanced female-male brain and find it neither easy nor difficult to judge people's emotions. If you scored 7 - 10: Your result suggests you are a good empathiser, sensitive to other people's emotions. Women generally fall into this category. Professor Baron-Cohen at the University of Cambridge says that people usually perform better than they expect to on this test.

Your ratios came to: [script removed] [script removed] Right Hand: 0.97 Left Hand: 0.97 Average ratio for men: 0.982 Average ratio for women: 0.991 It's thought that your ratio is governed by the amount of testosterone you were exposed to in your mother's womb. The ratio of the length of your index finger to the length of your ring finger is set for life by as early as three months after conception. Even during puberty, when we experience intensive hormonal changes, the ratio stays the same. Men generally have a ring finger that is longer than their index finger, which gives them a lower ratio than women, whose ring and index fingers are usually of equal length. Studies have found that men and women with lots of brothers generally have more masculine finger ratios. Find out what other things scientists think our ratios may tell us.

If you scored 0 - 6: Do you find yourself having to physically rotate a map to point in the direction in which you're travelling? This might explain why you scored in the lower range in the 3D shapes test. Twice as many women as men score in this category. Previous studies suggest that those with a female-type brain or with an arts background fall into this range. If you scored 7 - 9: In past studies, 50 per cent of the people who scored in this range were women and 50 per cent were men. If you scored 10 - 12: Are you an engineer or do you have a science background? People with these skills tend to score in this range. Past studies have concluded that people in this range have a more male brain. Nearly a third of men who took this test got full marks, whereas less than 10 per cent of women managed the same.

We are assuming that all the words you entered are correct. Average score for men: 11.4 words total Average score for women: 12.4 words total [script removed] [script removed] What does your result suggest? If you produced 1 - 5 words: You are more of the strong, silent type with a male brain. You probably find it easier to express yourself in non-verbal ways, preferring action rather than words. If you produced 6 - 10 words: Most people in this range have a female-type brain. Women are said to use both sides of the brain when doing verbal tasks while men mainly use their left side. Studies have shown that girls develop vocabulary faster than boys. This difference in brain power is caused by levels of pre-natal testosterone. Find out more .

Interesting... very interesting... keep in mind that i am not a native english speaker and therefore found the words test a bit challenging. I answered in english, though. (Have problems seeing it in english and then replying in german - like two 'modes') I found more words and expressions for happy than for grey. Must be a feeler thing. Lol. The grey thing was hard for me. The happy thing was relatively easy... I am amazed how many words you found for grey

I am confused however, that "people with an arts background" have low 3d shapes results... I mean, artist normally have good imagination and can turn objects in their mind at ease, seeing them from different sides... which is required for painting...

Dolphins, Donkeys, Elephants, Hippos, Rhinos, Birds, Dogs, Whales, Tuna, Fish, Concrete, Asphalt, Roads, Cars, Buildings, Skies, Hair, Brains, Suits, Dirt, Dust, Ash, Planes, Paint, Metals, Jewelry, Wool, Clothes  etc.etc.

They use a difficult word or colour so you'll really have to think about it. It's like the neuropsychological FAS verbal fluency test. You're supposed to list all the words you know beginning with the letters F, A & S. Needless to say F is the worst one. You've got one minute for each letter. 

As you can see in my list, I've both done semantic categories (I've listed objects that go together - they're in the same category,) as well as phonetic, some of them start with the same letter. It's the way our brain categorizes and works under pressure  

(I'm very used to these kinds of tests . )

Oh. Wow. You're right. I didn't even think about animals. I thought in categories like... Raincloud. Boring. Dull. Depression. Basically thinghs that have a feeling attached to it. Ah, Asphalt was in my list too. I listed it as street, streets show you where you are going, that has a feeling attached to it for me lol. It's that traveling-> life is a journey-> a journey is an adventure -> life is an adventure feeling to it...

The only problem I have with this test is that it's so visual... I'm definitely woman-brained. So woman-brained it's not even funny. XD But when it asked me to spot-the-difference and figure out the feelings-eyes things, I got confused. I'm just awful at visual things. I can't remember something if I just look at it. I'm good at reading peoples' body language when I'm with them. I actually use my ears a lot and listen to their voice to distinguish emotions - even hidden emotions. But just looking at pictures through the internet... blearg.

I love things like this.

I got a 0 I guess I have no gender according to this test.

We asked you to measure your ring and index fingers. Your ratios came to:

Right Hand: No result available. It appears you didn't complete this task.
Left Hand: No result available. It appears you didn't complete this task.

Average ratio for men: 0.982
Average ratio for women: 0.991
It's thought that your ratio is governed by the amount of testosterone you were exposed to in your mother's womb. The ratio of the length of your index finger to the length of your ring finger is set for life by as early as three months after conception. Even during puberty, when we experience intensive hormonal changes, the ratio stays the same.

What does your result suggest?

If you scored 0 - 6: Do you find yourself having to physically rotate a map to point in the direction in which you're travelling? This might explain why you scored in the lower range in the 3D shapes test. Twice as many women as men score in this category.

Average score for men: 11.4 words total
Average score for women: 12.4 words total
What does your result suggest?

If you produced 1 - 5 words: You are more of the strong, silent type with a male brain. You probably find it easier to express yourself in non-verbal ways, preferring action rather than words.

If you produced 6 - 10 words: Most people in this range have a female-type brain.

Ultimatum

This task asked you how you would divide money.

If you had to split £50 with someone, you said you would demand £29

So far on the Sex ID test, men have demanded 51.6% (£25.80) of the pot and women have demanded 51.0% (£25.50), on average.

What does your response suggest?

Sex differences are small in this task. Demanding less than 60% of the pot (ie £30) is more typically female. Demanding more than 65% of the pot (ie £32.50) is more typically male.

Scientists believe that people with lower testosterone levels tend to take fewer risks so they are probably more willing to keep less for themselves. Those with higher testosterone levels tend to drive a harder bargain and are less compromising.

Men's testosterone levels fluctuate over the seasons and are at their lowest levels during the springtime. This is said to influence their bargaining power. Find out more about the role of testosterone.
