This was an experimental study done to determine the effect of hand dominance on cognition. 60 female subjects between the age group of 18-25 years from SBSPGI were selected through convenient sampling by using inclusion and exclusion criteria. Subjects were divided in two groups- group A (Right handed individual) and group-B (Left handed individuals). Both the groups were assessed for their cognitive functions i.e. attention, memory and learning using trail making test, modified MMSE and VAK learning questionnaire. Data was analysed using independent t test and descriptive statistics.CONCLUSION: Left handers were found to be better in performing memory and attention tasks as compared to right handers. Majority of left handers were found to have auditory learning style and majority of right handers were found to have visual learning styles.
