Demography of handedness in two samples of randomly selected adults (N = 2083).
Handedness was examined in relation to sex, race, age, education, occupation, marital status, and religious preferences for two random samples of adults drawn from an urban population. There were statistically significant differences on each variable for the total of 2083 respondents as well as for many subgroups based on combinations of sex, race, and age. The results are compared to previous findings.
