- W1454388909 abstract "Publisher Summary This chapter presents the evidence and theories suggesting a relation between mental retardation and left-handedness. Numerous studies have examined hand and other lateral preferences of groups characterized by specific deficits such as reading disability, stuttering, perceptual problems, or mild intellectual deficits. The chapter examines evidence that shows that left-handers are clearly over-represented in mentally-retarded populations. The association between left-handedness and mental retardation has significant implications not only for the general question of the relation between left-handedness and cognitive deficit but also for theoretical accounts of lateral preferences. Theories of lateral preferences must be able to account for both the occurrence of left-handedness in the general population and for its special incidence among certain groups. Maturational and environmental accounts of the raised incidence of left-handedness in retarded groups predict a greater incidence of mixed but not of left-handedness in retarded groups and have therefore not been widely accepted. The role of environmental influences, including familiarity with tasks used to assess preferences, has probably been underestimated. The idea that pathological factors account for the excess of left-handedness in retarded groups is generally supported but the specific theories and models require modification to account for all the data." @default.
