Abstract

Effects of sex, handedness, and hand used in practice (preferred or nonpreferred) on reminiscence in a rotary tracking task were investigated in 80 subjects. As in a comparable study of mirror tracking (Wild & Payne, 1983), the female tendency to reminisce more than males on rotary pursuit was conditional upon the use of the preferred hand, whether right or left. However, the two tasks yielded several noteworthy differences in the effects of these variables on performance levels and secular trends. Implications of results for reminiscence theory were explored.
