Abstract

The impact of the dominant hand on the response time and precision in mental rotational tasks seems to be controversial. The goal of this study was to compare the differences in response times of mental rotation tasks when the task is performed with the dominant or non-dominant hand. In this study, 44 right-handers and 45 left-handers participated in mental rotation tests with 2-D and 3-D figures. Findings indicate that the right-handers had shorter response times than left-handers in tests with both types of figures.
