Seasonal variation in the birth of left-handed schoolgirls

A. Leviton and T. Kilty

The birth of left-handed girls in a school population displayed a seasonal trend, with a peak in November. No seasonal trend was seen in the birth of left-handed boys. The seasonal pattern of birth of left-handed girls is compatible with the hypothesis that nongenetic factors contribute to the occurrence of left-handedness.
