LQ, Laterality Quotient as assessed with the Edinburgh Handedness Scale [range: −100 (full left-handed) to + 100 (full right-handed)]. Hours of sports per week and hours of fine-motor training per week (e.g., playing a musical instrument, knitting, doing handcrafts, playing videogames with keypad or joystick) were assessed with a questionnaire. All values are depicted as mean ± standard error (SE) of the mean. Statistical analysis revealed no differences in age, gender, LQ, sports/week, fine-motor training/week between groups.
