摘要
A hand preference inventory and a disease questionnaire were administered to a sample of 743 undergraduate students. The incidence of left-handedness was not related to the report of any of the diseases surveyed. Among right-handers, preference scores were slightly lower (less right-handed) in those reporting drug allergies or migraine. These data provide no support for the argument that handedness and immune disorders are related.
