    Summary

    This study found no age differences in eye preference but revealed sex differences in hand preference. Eye and hand preferences showed minimal correlation, with reversed eye preference patterns between right and left-handers.

    Area of Science:

    • Neuroscience
    • Developmental Psychology
    • Human Biology

    Background:

    • The relationship between eye preference and hand preference is debated.
    • Age-related variations in eye preference patterns are also controversial.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the link between eye preference and hand preference.
    • To examine age differences in eye preference patterns.
    • To identify sex differences in hand and eye preference.

    Main Methods:

    • A study involving 725 elementary and junior high school students.
    • Utilized various tests to assess hand and eye preference.
    • Analyzed data for correlations between preferences and demographic factors (sex, age).

    Main Results:

    • A significant sex difference was observed in hand preference, with males showing less right-hand preference than females.
    • No significant sex difference was found in eye preference patterns.
    • Hand preference and eye preference showed negligible correlation.
    • Eye preference distribution patterns were reversed between right-handers and left-handers.
    • No age differences were detected in eye preference patterns.

    Conclusions:

    • Hand preference exhibits sex-based variations, unlike eye preference.
    • Eye and hand preferences are largely independent, though eye preference patterns differ between right- and left-handers.
    • Eye preference patterns remain stable across the studied age range.
