N2 - Brain dominance and handedness have been of great interest to physicians and neurologists from time immemorial. While handedness deals with motor dominance and cerebral hemisphere producing language , brain hemisity deals with learning characteristics and behavioural styles. A Edinburgh handedness inventory (EHI) published in 1971 (1) measures hand dominance in daily activities. After nearly 35 years of use of EHI a revision (2) was made in EHI by discarding activities like opening box, broom and drawing and incorporating a new one , that is use of a computer mouse. Likert scale format was added.
