Abstract

Purpose. The purpose of this study was compared of left dominant and the right dominant hands about coordination. Methods. The participants were 30 occupational therapy students in M university in Changwon, from April 28th 2015 to May 1. The test tools were Jebson-Taylor Hand Function Test, Hand Strength & Pinch, Grooved Pegboard Test, Box & Block and Balance Test. Results. Right dominant hand was higher than left dominant in hand grip and dexterity, hand manipulation skills. And one leg standing and toe standing were higher left foot than right foot dominant. Conclusion. Most of all evaluation items showed a better result right dominant hand than left dominant. But shows that there is no functional difference between left-hand dominant than right-hand. So left-hand dominant coordination was evaluated by a better than right-handed.
