have gotten requests from students to post on this website the brain
hemispheric preference and learning link assessments that they did in class.
Well, here they are--fun for the whole family! I've also included the
notes about learning style and left/right brain research. It's pretty
current, but this is a constantly changing field of study.
The files are in pdf format, so
you'll need a recent version of the free Adobe Reader.

How to interpret the Learning Style
Assessment
On the last page, you will score the test in
the box according to the directions. Here's how a, b, c, and d
break down.
- a - Visual
- b - Auditory
- c - Tactile
- d - Kinesthetic
The one in which you scored the highest is
what you write on the last line. If you have two (or three or
four) that are tied for the top honors, then write them all down.
That's not a bad thing! It just means you're balanced in your
learning styles.
How to interpret the Brain
Hemispheric Assessment
On the last page, read the directions
for scoring very carefully. When it says "Score 1
point for each question you answered with only a and
write the total," it really means it! Notice the third
line is reserved for when you answered both a & b.
Here's how a, b, and a/b break down:
- a - Left Brain preference
- b - Right Brain preference
- a/b - integrated use of both
Left and Right
If you had a tie score for the
first two lines (not the integrated a/b), then you have a
mixed preference. If one is just a little bit more
than the other--say, within one or two--then you have a
mixed preference that favors that side.
