Left-Handed People Like Left Better than Right

A Spanish experimental psychologist has just concluded that left-handed people like things on the left better than things on the right, unlike right-handed people, who like things on the right better than things on the left.

In one of his experiments, Casasanto presented participants a diagram that depicts a character who was planning a trip to the zoo, and who loves zebras and thinks they are good, but dislikes pandas and thinks they are bad. The participant had to draw a zebra in the box that best represented good things and a panda in the box that best represented bad things.

You can read the press release here. I kind of love it.
