Abstract:
The relationship between handedness and accidents in self-classified left- and right-handers in India was examined. It was hypothesised that the incidence of accidents would be greater in left-handers as compared to right-handers. Data were collected with the help of a questionnaire on side bias, along with a checklist on accidents. Analysis of data suggested that whether or not left-handers have more accidents than right-handers depends on the kind of activity examined: in India, left-handers have more driving accidents than right-handers, while right-handers have more sports accidents than left-handers.
