” The strength of the hand preferably has a relationship with certain characteristics such as creativity and health. The less preferred the greater the difference. Between left and right with a clear preference for that hand have not found much difference. “

A striking finding, says Groothuis. “But much more interesting is to see whether it matters how well a person can stuff with different hands.” That is the topic for further study.
