My seventh grader is doing a science fair project involving "handedness". She needs a larger sample for her data. If you would like to help, please do the following: clasp your hands together with your fingers intertwined. Report which thumb is on top and if you are right or left handed. Thanks for your help! Standing outside the grocery store didn't work, even with tootsie rolls as a thank you. People were too afraid we were selling something!

It's called "Morton's Toe." You can Google up a lot of references on it. Thanks, I never knew that.

BTW....your child may want to consider this.
I am right handed and did as you asked, and found my left thumb on top, because it was the most comfortable option.
I then took off my rings. Tried it again.
Either way was as comfortable.
I'm not sure if I immediately chose to clasp my hands with 'left thumb on top' initially, or that my mind had predetermined that the rings on my fingers (which I wear everyday) would make it less comfortable for me to do otherwise. :-)
