Eye dominance influences triggering action: The Poffenberger paradigm revisited
2014, CortexCitation Excerpt :A potential important factor to analyze the performance of left-handers may also be their adopted writing posture, i.e., inverted or non-inverted. It has been suggested that left-handers who adopt an inverted writing posture could control the distal musculature mainly from the ipsilateral hemisphere (Levy & Reid, 1976, 1978; Moscovitch & Smith, 1979; but see Herron, Galin, Johnstone, & Ornstein, 1979; McKeever & VanDeventer, 1980; Teasdale & Owen, 2001). To verify whether these inverted writers (n = 7 in our group of left-handers, see Supplementary Table A2) could have influenced the results, we conducted a statistical analysis for left-handers (see section 3.1.2) while considering only participants that employ non-inverted writing posture.
