Abstract

In light of a recent hypothesis, the concordance between patterns of lateralpreference and sensory integration were examined. Specifically, the scoresfor 48 normal preadolescents on a multifactor measure of lateral preferenceand subtests of the Visual Aural Digit Span Test were interrelated. Theresults indicated a tendency for intersensory integration scores to decreaseas patterns of general lateral preference became more mixed and to increaseas foot preference became more stable. No reliable relationships were foundbetween lateral preference and intrasensory scores. The results wereinterpreted as tentative support for problems in visual-verbal integrationconsistent with more mixed patterns of lateral preference.
