Right versus left. The design of controls and instruments affects how easily people can use them. Timothy Sturm investigated this effect in a course project, asking 25 right-handed students to turn a knob (with their right hands) that moved an indicator by screw action. There were two identical instruments: one with a right-hand thread (the knob turns clockwise), and the other with a left-hand thread (the knob turns counterclockwise). Table 20.4 gives the times in seconds each subject took to...

Do left-handed people live shorter lives than right-handed people? A study of this question examined a sample of 949 death records and contacted next of kin to determine handedness. Note that there are many possible definitions of "left-handed." The researchers examined the effects of different definitions on the results of their analysis and found that their conclusions were not sensitive to the exact definition used. For the results presented here, people were defined to be right-handed if they wrote, drew,...

It has been claimed that, on average, right-handed people have a left foot that is larger than the right foot. Here we test this claim on a sample of 10 right-handed adults. The table below gives the left and right foot measurements in millimeters (mm). Test the claim at the 0.05 significance level. You may assume the sample of differences comes from a normally distributed population. Person Left Foot (x) Right Foot (y) 1 268 268 2 265 263 3...
