    Author: Chan T.
    Journal: Percept Mot Skills; 2000 Apr; 90(2):537-42. PubMed ID: 10833751.
    Abstract:
    In ergonomics, handgrip has been perceived as one of the most important hand functions; however, other types of functions of the hand are also important to the ergonomist, such as finger and manual dexterity, on which few ergonomic studies have been done. This experiment involved 60 male and female college students whose performance (number of pegs placed into a board in 30 sec.) of finger dexterity were statistically significantly different between the right and left hands and between women and men. The interaction of hand and sex was significant.
