If you see a rabbit first, she explains it's more likely your left brain hemisphere is "more dominant". This could mean your "mathematical abilities" and "talent for logical step-by-step thinking are often admired by others". She continued: "You excel at tasks requiring precision, such as writing, reading and calculating and you possess outstanding analytical skills."

In addition, the psychologist claims those who see the rabbit first value "clarity and structure" and love solving "complex problems" and enjoy finding "clear answers".

Meanwhile, if you saw a duck first, Marina says your "right brain hemisphere is probably more dominant". According to the psychologist, this means you're a "creative person with strong intuition" and have a "vivid imagination".

She continued: "You love to express emotions through visuals, and love to dream and explore new ideas. You're inspired by music, painting and other forms of self-expression that allow for creative thinking." She also said you find joy in "unconventional solutions" which bring "vibrancy to everyday life".

In the comment section there were a mix of people who saw the rabbit and the duck first - and those who could only see one of the animals. "There is no rabbit I swear," said one person. "I'm still searching for the rabbit!!" added another.

Another wrote: "I saw a duck first then the rabbit," and similarly someone else commented: "I could see both, but first the duck."

This duck-rabbit drawing was first used by American psychologist Joseph Jastrow in 1899. He wanted to make a point that perception is not just what a person sees, but also a mental activity.

He suggested the faster you can see the second animal, and the faster people can change their perception of the drawing and switch between the two animals, the quicker your brain works - and the more creative you are.
