• Question: I did the line test from your profile and strangely unlike you said I got right in the middle 3 times in a row, Why did this happen?

      Hello! I’m really pleased that you did my task! When most people do this task they pay more attention to the left hand side and think the middle is towards the left. One study showed that 95 % of right handed people (almost all people) do the line task like this. Are you right handed? If you are not – maybe you are left handed – then this could be why because left handed people sometimes perform differently on spatial tasks to right handed people. But if you are right handed you are in the 5 % people who do the task a different way – you are unique in this respect!
