Handedness and Earnings Laterality: Asymmetries of Body, Brain and Cognition 12,2 ( March 2007): 101-120. Also: http://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/13576500600992297 Cohort(s): NLSY79 Publisher: Routledge ==> Taylor & Francis (1998) Keyword(s): Earnings; Educational Attainment; Gender Differences; Handedness We examine whether handedness is related to performance in the labour market and, in particular, to earnings. We find a significant wage effect for left-handed men with high levels of education. This positive wage effect is strongest among those who have lower than average earnings relative to those of similar high education. This effect is not found among women. |
