Sinistrality Is Associated with (slightly) lower General Intelligence: A Data Synthesis and Consideration of Secular Trend Data in Handedness HOMO: Journal of Comparative Human Biology 69,3 (May 2018): 118-126. Also: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0018442X18300246 Cohort(s): NLSY79, NLSY97 Publisher: Elsevier Keyword(s): Cross-national Analysis; Handedness; I.Q.; Intelligence; NCDS - National Child Development Study (British) The relationship between the general factor of intelligence (g) and handedness is investigated using a combined sample of 23511 respondents from three large databases: the NLSY'79 (US), NLSY'97 (US) and NCDS (UK). Dextrals -- those who use their right hands -- were found to be 1.22 IQ points higher than sinistrals (left handers) after controling for sex and age and correcting for sources of measurement error. |
