- Abstract
Objective: The aim of the study is to investigate whether the cognitive control and flexibility states and cognitive failure levels of individuals change according to their hand preferences. Material and Methods: The 141 volunteer university students participated in the cross-sectional study. After questioning the demographic information of the individuals, their hand preferences were determined with the Edinburgh Hand Preference Questionnaire. Individuals' ability to control their negative thoughts and emotions in stressful situations and to cope flexibly was evaluated with the Cognitive Control and Flexibility Questionnaire, and their cognitive failure was evaluated with the Cognitive Failures Questionnaire. Results: The mean age of 119 female and 22 male individuals participating in the study was 20.76±1.47. According to the Edinburgh Hand Prefence Questionnaire, it was determined that 96 people used their right hand frequently, 18 people used their left hand frequently, and 27 people used both hands, that is "ambidextrous". It was observed that there was no statistically significant difference between the groups in the Cognitive Control and Flexibility Questionnare according to the hand preferences (p=0.416, 0.944; p>0.05). In cognitive failure scores, it was found that individuals using both hands had higher scores than right- and left-hand preferences (p=0.048; p<0.05). Conclusion: In the results of the study in which we grouped individuals according to their hand preferences, it was seen that individuals with left-hand dominance received the lowest score in terms of cognitive failure. In terms of study results offer a different perspective on the relationship between brain lateralization and cognitive functions.
