Abstract
Four male and four female marmoset monkeys were observed to make a total of 5,600 “right”, “left”, or “both” hand responses over seven categories of spontaneous behaviour. Significant and consistent hand preferences were shown for the majority of monkeys in two of the categories of behaviour, but not in the other five. The paper considers some of the methodological difficulties involved in recording “handedness” in a species such as the common marmoset.
