Sex and Handedness in Simple and Integrated Task Performance.

And Others; Berry, Gene A.

Perceptual and Motor Skills, v51 n3 pt1 p807-12 Dec 1980

Spatial and sequential tasks performed both independently and jointly were compared for 40 undergraduates grouped by sex and dominant hand. When both tasks were performed simutaneously, there was a significant advantage for right-handers and a slight advantage for males. This was attributed to hemispheric interference left-handers experienced. (Author/SJL)
