Reaction + movement-time and sidedness in Shotokan karate students.
Reaction + movement-times on four counter-offensive techniques of Shotokan karate were found not to differ with regard to sidedness, despite right-sided bias in such techniques in Shotokan kata (forms) previously recorded, and with no attempt to correct the bias in basics and/or sparring over a long period.
