Oh you're not being a party-pooper at all! In fact, I totally agree that no one is totally left- or right- brained. We all use both. I especially disagree with the myth that right-handed people are left-brained and left-handed people are right-brained. Hogwash!
But, in that moment that we are viewing the dancing lady, one hemisphere is dominant. If she spins in one direction or the other predominately, that could be a clue as to which hemisphere tends to be more dominant most of the time. That part makes sense to me.
The study you cited just says that
...which just means that they couldn't measure it using that particular type of brain imaging. There is a lot they cannot yet measure, such as intuition, psychic ability, etc.

Quote:newly released research findings from University of Utah neuroscientists assert that there is no evidence within brain imaging that indicates some people are right-brained or left-brained.
