Individual differences in degree of handedness and somesthetic asymmetry predict individual differences in left-right confusion University of Antwerp Ghent University
Confusion or frustration connected with daily demands involving left-right discrimination is a common observation even in neurologically intact adults. We aimed to test the hypothesis that the degree of left-right confusion is associated with bodily asymmetry. Sixty-two female volunteers performed a left-right decision task that required fast responses to visually presented directional words (left, right, up, down) or pictograms (←, →, ↑, ↓). ...
