The direction of drawing a circle, labeled the 'torque test' (Blau, 1977), was evaluated in 74 normal adults (age 14 to 44 yr.) as a predictor of both handedness and cerebral dominance on the dichotic listening test. The results indicate that torque is related to handedness but not to lateralization of language. We suggest that circle-drawing by adults is dependent more on the muscle mechanics of the hand than on cerebral dominance.
一种被称为“扭矩测试”(布劳,1977年)的画圆方向,在74名正常成年人(年龄14至44岁)中进行了评估,作为在双耳分听测试中判定利手和大脑优势的一项指标。结果表明,扭矩与利手有关,但与语言的偏侧化无关。我们认为,成年人画圆更多地取决于手部的肌肉力学,而非大脑优势。
