A sample of 8,929 male baseball players and a sample of 2,234 males from the U.S. National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey are used to assess the relation between handedness and season of birth. The results, when coupled with a further examination of the 1991 data of Dellatolas, Curt, and Lellouch, lead to the conclusion that those born during the spring and early summer are more likely to be left-handed than are those born during the fall and winter.
选取了8929名男性棒球运动员作为样本，并从美国国家健康与营养检查调查中选取了2234名男性作为样本，用以评估用手习惯与出生季节之间的关系。这些结果，再结合对德拉托拉斯、柯特和勒卢什1991年数据的进一步研究，得出结论：春季和初夏出生的人比秋季和冬季出生的人更有可能是左撇子。
