What did you think of the
Ultimate Stress Test? Let's see
how well you did.
All three of the images are
completely static - they are
simply gif images which appear to
move as an optical illusion. The
combination of colors, shapes and
patterns can cause the brain to
react a certain way when viewing
these images. We asked you to
note whether the images appeared
to you to remain completely
still, or move fast or slow.
Here is your analysis:
The slower the pictures
appeared to move, the better your
ability of handling stress.
For example, alleged criminals
who were tested said they say the
images spinning around madly.
One teacher who was tested
said, "I felt like they were all
moving...but slowly. Kind of
like, they were breathing."
Interestingly enough, senior
citizens and children appear to
see the images standing still.
