Functional Anatomy of Writing with the Dominant Hand

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
While writing performed by any body part is similar in style, indicating a common program, writing with the dominant hand is particularly skilled. We hypothesized that this skill utilizes a special motor network supplementing the motor equivalence areas.

STOCHASTIC DOMINANCE [PDF]

open access: yes
The concept of stochastic dominance is defined, and its relation to welfare, poverty, and income inequality explained. A brief discussion is provided of how statistical inference may be performed for hypotheses relating to stochastic dominance.

A Functional Connectivity Model of Sensorimotor Regions Within the Cerebellum to Predict Handedness

open access: yesImpulse: The Premier Undergraduate Neuroscience Journal, 2023
Cerebellar hypoplasia can be caused by congenital or post-natal viral infection or a genetic mutation, and leads to an underdeveloped cerebellum, motor dysfunction, and ataxia.

Analyzing Grip Strength Disparities Between Dominant and Non-Dominant Hands: Influence of Sex and Age in the Polish Population

open access: yesApplied Sciences
Handgrip strength (HGS) is a key indicator of muscular fitness and physical health. Recently, attention has focused on HGS asymmetry as a potential marker of functional impairment.

DETERMINING THE STRENGTH OF HAND GRIP FOR HEALTHY ADULTS IN RELATION WITH HAND LENGTH, FOREARM CIRCUMFERENCE, BMI AND HAND DOMINANCE

open access: yesInternational Journal of Physiotherapy, 2016
Background: Hand-grip strength studies with healthy adults have shown correlation between anthropometric variables and hand grip strength. There is dearth in literature in population of Saudi Arabia.

Testing for Mobility Dominance [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper proposes tests for stochastic dominance in mobility based on the empirical likelihood ratio. Two views of mobility are considered, either based on measures of absolute mobility or on transition matrices.

Stochastic Dominance Analysis of iShares [PDF]

open access: yes
Country indices as represented by iShares exhibit non-normal return distributions with both skewness and kurtosis. Davidson and Duclos (2000) and Memmel (2003) provide procedures for determining the statistical significance of stochastic dominance ...
