The handedness preference (laterality) of 1,196 professionals grouped in nine professions previously reported using self-reported global handedness and scores on a modified Edinburgh Handedness Inventory was further defined by evaluating the association between profession and the 10 manual tasks of the inventory. The previously reported ranking of professions in order of increasing righthandedness of laterality score arose from the handedness of specific inventory tasks. A similar association was found for self-reported global handedness. The evidence continues to support the hypothesis of an association between handedness preference and specific aptitudes or skills in this sample of professional persons.
此前曾报告过，1196名按九个职业分组的专业人员的用手偏好（偏侧性）是通过自我报告的总体用手习惯和改良版爱丁堡用手量表得分来确定的。通过评估职业与该量表10项手动任务之间的关联，对其用手偏好进行了进一步界定。此前报告的职业按偏侧性得分右利手程度递增顺序排列，这是由特定量表任务的用手习惯导致的。自我报告的总体用手习惯也发现了类似的关联。在这个专业人员样本中，证据继续支持用手偏好与特定能力或技能之间存在关联的假设。
