Abstract

A hand preference inventory and a disease questionnaire were administered to a sample of 743 undergraduate students. The incidence of left-handedness was not related to the report of any of the diseases surveyed. Among right-handers, preference scores were slightly lower (less right-handed) in those reporting drug allergies or migraine. These data provide no support for the argument that handedness and immune disorders are related.

摘要

对743名本科生样本进行了利手偏好量表和疾病调查问卷测试。左利手的发生率与所调查的任何疾病报告均无关联。在右利手者中，报告有药物过敏或偏头痛的人的偏好得分略低（右利手程度较低）。这些数据不支持利手与免疫紊乱有关这一论点。
