Abstract
Responses of groups of 163 right-, 22 mixed, and 20 left-handed university students to the seven symptom, subscales of a 48-item Stress-related Health Problems Scale were used to test the hypothesis that left-handedness is as sociated with an increased risk of stress-related health problems. Since on ly one of the 21 possible statistical rests computed barely reached statist ical significance, there is no meaningful; relationship between handedness and stress-related health problems.
