title: Lateral cradling preferences in men and women: results from a photographic study.
abstract: Photographs of men and women holding infants were analyzed for side of holding. Of the photographs of women, a significant majority (63%) showed left-side holding, consistent with previous reports. In contrast to these same reports, however, men also showed a left-side preference and by the same margin.
