Asymmetry of the stepping test.
The influence of handedness on a measure of the vestibulospinal response was investigated with 25 right-handed and 25 left-handed subjects to examine the asymmetry of the stepping test. Right-handed subjects showed dominance of the right side indicated by direction of movement, but left-handed subjects tended much less to the left side so a functional asymmetry is for left-handers somewhat less clearly expressed.
