[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here. Calm down people… I’m just asking people’s experience. Yes, my mom is a Chinese and she lives in Shanghai. She’s also sharing with me more videos just now about not letting lefty using right hand. She’s just trying to advise something good for her grandkid. I know manybeople were corrected to use right hand as the handwriting in Chinese and most of the world are designed for people using right hand. Also found these two articles if people’re interested to read: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6758284/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6672868/[/quote] Seriously, did you read them before citing? [quote]Conclusion [b]Adult converted [FYI not childhood, OP] left-handers show persistent features of left-handedness during right-hand writing[/b]. Extending previous studies, which emphasized functional asymmetries at the executive level of the motor system (e.g., the SM1), our results provide evidence for a neural substrate of human handedness in premotor and parietal motor association areas.[/quote] [quote]In summary, the reorganization patterns found in converted left-handers point to two distinct neuronal correlates of handedness in executive and associative sensorimotor cortices. Although the executive representations in SM1 and caudal PMd are more flexible and can be influenced by preferred hand use throughout life, representations in higher-order sensorimotor areas of the dominant hemisphere (i.e., in the inferior parietal cortex and rostrolateral PMd) cannot be switched by educational training. [b]Indeed, these higher-order representations are paradoxically strengthened by attempts to switch handedness for writing[/b].[/quote][/quote] Probably not. It seems like OP has already decided and just wants reinforcement. [/quote]
