Abstract

In this study, I investigated the handedness patterns of large samples of hypothetically psychosis-prone college students. Psychosis-prone subjects who scored high on the Perceptual Aberration-Magical Ideation scale ( n = 173) or on the revised Physical Anhedonia scale ( n = 88) did not differ significantly from control subjects ( n = 929) in self-categorized, handedness patterns. These findings provide no support for the hypothesis that psychosis-prone college students are characterized by anomalous handedness patterns. Methodological factors that may have confounded the results of previous investigations in this area are discussed.
