Impact of Handedness Consistency on Bimanual and Unimanual Continuous Movements.
Journal of Motor Behavior 2018 March 14
Bimanual coordination is an essential human function requiring efficient interhemispheric communication to produce coordinated movements. Previous research suggests a "bimanual advantage" phenomenon, where completing synchronized bimanual tasks results in less variability than unimanual tasks. Additionally, of hand dominance has been shown to influence coordinated performance. The present study examined the bimanual advantage in individuals with consistent and inconsistent handedness. It was predicted that participants with consistent handedness would not display a bimanual advantage unlike those with inconsistent handedness. Fifty-six young adults completed a finger-tapping paradigm in five conditions: unimanual tapping with either left or right hand, in-phase bimanual tapping, and out-of phase bimanual tapping led by either left or right hand. Results were not consistent with the hypothesis that participants with consistent handedness displayed the "bimanual advantage". However, the "bimanual advantage" was not evident for the inconsistent handers when the temporal consistency was measured with either the left or right hand only. Overall, the "bimanual advantage" may be dependent upon consistency of hand preference, as well as the direction of hand dominance.
