چکیده

The study examines the relationship between hand preference and conjugate lateral eye movements. The sample comprised of 224 persons. The hand preference was assessed using a handedness inventory. Conjugate lateral eye movements were elicited in response to verbal and spatial questions among left-, mixedand right-handers. The leftand mixed-handers exhibit significantly greater number of conjugate lateral eye movements than the right-handers. On the verbal task, right-handers exhibit rightward conjugate lateral eye movements, and leftand mixed-handers exhibit leftward conjugate lateral eye movements. On the spatial questions, right-handers exhibit leftward conjugate lateral eye movements and leftand mixed-handers also exhibit leftward conjugate lateral eye movements. While right-handers show normal lateralization pattern, the leftand mixed-handers show right brain dominance irrespective of the nature of questions.
