The bivariate analyses disclosed a significant association between handedness and dyslexia and a significant but weak association between handedness and immune disorders.No significant association was found between dyslexia and immune disorders.A triadic analysis yielded the following:66.7%of the left-handed dyslexic children had immune disorders (P>.05);42.1%of the left-handed children with immune disorders and dyslexia(P<.01);and 32%of the dyslexic children with immune disorders were left-handed(P<.05).There seems to be some association between dyslexia, left-handedness,and immune disorders.Of the three factors,handedness seems to be the most important association.The findings lend some support to the most important association.The findings lend some support to the one interpretation of the hypotheses of Geschwind,Behan,and Galaburda. |
