Investigating bimanual coordination in dominant and non-dominant virtual hands
Laterality: Asymmetries of Body, Brain and Cognition, 2008 A bias in attention towards the dominant hand has been cited as a possible factor in the lateralisation of human bimanual coordination (Peters, 1981). A mirror was placed between the hands of 18 dextral participants performing rhythmic anti-phase movements. This set-up gave the appearance of a reflected virtual hand (moving in time with the un-occluded
