Abstract
In a non-industrial Papuan society: ⺠Schooling was associated with hand preference, but not with asymmetry of hand skill, indicating developmental plasticity. ⺠Hand skill asymmetry was not a major determinant of hand preference. ⺠We found evidence of implicit selection of the fitter part of the population to enter school.
