Indications of laterall biases favouring left-handers have been found in various sports; especially interactive sports where the athletes have limited time to react to incoming objects. The aim of this study was therefore to explore whether any lateral biases exist in handball by examining 7-meter shots. A total of 6846 7-meter throws from 240 7-meter shooters across four seasons in the semi-professional Icelandic elite handball division (male and female) were analyzed. Out of the 240 7-meter shooters, of which 151 were male and 89 were female, 22% were left-handed (22% of the males and 20% of the females). The left-handed 7-meter shooters took a disproportionate number of the 7-meter shots, with left-handed shooters performing 29% of the 7-meter shots (27% in the male league and 33% in the female league). The results of a Bayesian two-level analysis indicated that left-handedness is not associated with greater success from the 7-meter line at the semi-professional level.
在各种运动中都发现了偏向左撇子的侧偏迹象；特别是在运动员有有限的时间对来球做出反应的互动性运动中。因此，本研究旨在通过检查 7 米射门来探索手球是否存在任何侧偏。这项研究分析了来自冰岛半职业精英手球联赛（男、女）四个赛季的 240 名 7 米射手的 6846 次 7 米射门。在 240 名 7 米射手中有 151 名男性和 89 名女性，其中 22%是左撇子（男性中有 22%，女性中有 20%）。左撇子 7 米射手的 7 米射门数量不成比例，左撇子射手完成了 29%的 7 米射门（男子联赛中占 27%，女子联赛中占 33%）。贝叶斯两级分析的结果表明，在半职业水平上，左撇子的成功与从 7 米线射门的关系不大。
