Handedness distribution in a transitional first grade population
… was: (a) to investigate the distribution of handedness between T-1 students over the past five years compared to their same-age peers; (b) to investigate the distribution of handedness between T-1 boys, same-age boys, T-1 girls, and same-age girls; (c) to examine the kindergarten teachers' …

Vocal Handedness: The Emergence of Lateralization at Fledging
<p>Adult waterslager canaries produce the majority of their song under the control of the left hemisphere/left syringeal half. Unilateral section of the left treacheosyringeal nerve results in near complete loss of song while right denervation affects only a subset of call elements. This strong …

Hemispheric Differences in Semantic Priming Examined Across Handedness Groups
… differences in semantic priming across handedness groups. A lexical decision task was administered to 87 individuals, classified into handedness groups: consistent right-handers; consistent left-handers; and inconsistent-handers. Participants were presented with strongly- and …

Naturalistic Visuomotor Behaviours Reveal Reduced Handedness Lateralization In Autism
… The current study investigates how handedness, a robust marker of cerebral lateralization, is modulated in autistic and non-autistic right-handed adults (n=27 per group) using a naturalistic LEGO® model-building task. Participants recreated five models from blocks placed on a …

Variability in bimanual coordination across the continuum of handedness.
… unimanual tasks, or a bimanual advantage. Also, handedness and musical/athletic experience have also been shown to influence coordinated performance. The present study examined the existence of a bimanual advantage and potential factors influencing coordination in a tapping paradigm. Results …

Handedness and Dominance Patterns of Normal and Mentally Retarded Children
The problem is to determine if left handedness differs significantly between normal and mentally retarded children, if laterality differs significantly between normal and mentally retarded children, and if laterality differs significantly between left and right handed normal and mentally retarded …

Are there handedness differences in response to ambiguity and stereotype threat?
The thesis examined whether handedness influenced responses to ambiguity and stereotype threat. This was examined through two studies, the first examining handedness and ambiguity, and the second examining handedness and stereotype threat. In both studies, hand direction and strength were recorded …

Spatial ability and handedness as potential predictors of space teleoperation performance
… spatial ability, joystick configuration, and handedness influenced performance of telerobotic fly-to tasks in a virtual ISS environment. 11 righthanded and 9 left-handed subjects completed 48 total trials, split between two hand controller configurations. Performance was defined by task time, …

Brain Functional Asymmetry: Handedness and Gender /// Функционална мозъчна асиметрия: ръкост и пол
Функционалната мозъчна асиметрия е един от особено интересните и актуални проблеми на съвременното естествознание, биология и медицина. Стандартните модели на асиметрия се градят на базата на дихотомично деление на функционалната компетентност между двете полукълба в контекста на …

Handedness as a Predictor of Success in FAR Part 141 Flight Training
… the prevalence of left-, right-, and mixed-handedness and handedness as a predictor of success in flight training. The convenience sample is comprised of students enrolled in or who have previously completed the private pilot course at the University of North Dakota’s Part 141 flight …

A link between handedness, gender, socioeconomics, race, and parental involvement and learning disabilities
… study was to examine if there was a link between handedness, gender, socioeconomics, race, and parental involvement and learning disabilities. The records from a local school where reviewed and compared to the national records. When comparing the local and national records, the school was found to …

Handedness and the geometry and hemodynamics of the branches of the aortic arch
… This study explored the relationship between handedness and the anatomical and hemodynamic characteristics of the carotid arteries, analysing potential asymmetries between the left and right common, internal and external carotid arteries in leftha-nded versus right-handed individuals. The …

Left-handed BCI - examining effects of handedness and hand dominance on EEG grasp classification
… for BCIs, however, seldom examine the effects of handedness, as well as off-hand or dualhanded motion, on classification accuracy. This study examines the effects of hand use and hand dominance on the performance of several classifiers derived from EEG data. Data was collected, using the OpenBCI …
