Which factors affect hand selection in children’s grasping in hemispace? Combined effects of task demand and motor dominance

Sixty-five right- and left-handed preschool and school children were tested on three reach-to-grasp tasks of different levels of complexity, performed in three space locations. Our goal was to evaluate how the effect of attentional information related to object location interacts with task complexity and degree of handedness on children’s hand selection. Results rev
