Study suggests biases in handedness and visual field alignment offer social benefits. Humans show high right-handedness and left visual field bias. Animal studies indicate biases enhance survival tasks. Aligning biases with others may provide social advantages. Research may also link to autism/ ADHD

Left-handers are more competitive than right-handers. Most people are right-handed, but 10.6% are left-handed. Left-handers are rarer than right-handers, making their attacks in a combat situation more surprising than those of right-handers. This may help…
🏆 New Study: Left-handers exhibit higher levels of hypercompetitive orientation compared to right-handers.
🔬 Research published in Scientific Reports (2026) by Giulia Prete et al. involved over 1100 volunteers, linking stronger left-handedness to self-developmental competitive orientation and stronger right-handedness to anxiety-driven competition avoidance.
🌍 Findings suggest competitiveness may help explain the evolutionary advantage of left-handedness, particularly in competitive sports or fighting situations.
