Hi there! I'm a newbie on this board, but I was quite intrigued by this discussion
Pls forgive me for any newbie boo-boos.
Sheila, on the handedness test, I actually scored 5/5 righty. On the straight/hooked writing thingy, I had this thought:
When a righty writes straight or a lefty writes hooked, the words you're writing appear in your left field of vision, while the right visual field is blocked by your hand/pen (try writing while closing each eye in turn and you'll get what I mean). So there's more input into your left eye, and hence into your left brain. Vice versa for the lefty writing straight and the righty writing hooked.
I wonder if that's the reason why that test indicates your dominant hemisphere for language. My 2c
