title: Cohort effects in the lateral preference of Japanese people.
abstract: Handedness data of the Japanese were collected twice with an interval of 20 years, using an identical handedness inventory. In the second cohort, non-right-handers among male and female students numbered 11.5% and 5.9%, respectively. The results showed that the incidence of non-right-handedness among Japanese females has increased from 20 years ago.
