When referring to objects, the term indicates that the object is equally suitable for right-handed and left-handed people. When referring to humans, it indicates that a person has no Handedness, marked preference for the use of the right or left hand. Only about one percent of people are naturally ambidextrous, which equates to about 80,000,000 people in the world today.

Since many everyday devices such as can openers and scissors are asymmetrical and designed for right-handed people, many left-handers learn to use them right-handedly due to the rarity or lack of left-handed models. Thus, left-handed people are more likely to develop motor ski ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
