Dec. 6th, 2006 01:38 pmLeft-handers think more quickly? I wonder if this is a "born" thing or if it's a "learned" thing, though. A lot of the things in life are designed to cater for most of the population - ie right handers. Bottle caps scissors, number pads... the mouse is usually placed on the right-hand side, and handrail to stairs, if it's only on one side, is usually on the right, to give a few examples... meaning that as far as I know, from being left-handed and knowing other left-handers, left-handers are better at using their non-writing hand than right-handers are. This probably means that left-handers are more "well-rounded" in their development, therefore they are quicker at things or are better at multitasking in general?
Or it could be that the side controlling the left hand is the side that control reaction speeds, which would be the more obvious answer...
