Handedness, Anxiety and Sex Differences.

Wienrich, A. M.; And Others

British Journal of Psychology, v73 n1 p69-72 Feb 1982

Assessed anxiety scores of 70 male and female students (28 right-handers, 23 left-handers and 19 mixed-handers) for relationship to the handedness classification of each individual. Found females showed higher anxiety scores than males; left-handers and mixed-handers were more anxious than right-handers; and extremes of handedness were more anxious. (Author/RC)
