Distribution of students with respect to types of profile of lateral organization of functions

The distribution of students of Moscow State University with respect to the types of profile of lateral organization of motor and sensory functions was studied. The results were compared to previous data (1980–1995) obtained for an identical sample of subjects by the same methods. A considerable decrease in the proportion of “pure” right-handers and increases in the percentages of ambidextrous subjects and left-handers, as well as right-handed subjects with different variants of ear and eye domination, were detected.
