Handedness and its association with education and spatial navigation assessed in over 400,000 participants across 41 countries

P. Fernandez-Velasco, A. Coutrot, H. Oloye, J. M. Wiener, R. C. Dalton, C. Hoelscher, E. Manley, M. Hornberger, H. Spiers

This study investigates the association between handedness and spatial navigation using a large cross-cultural sample, finding no reliable link between handedness and navigation ability but identifying factors influencing left-handedness prevalence.
