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!

Right-handed, left thumb on top.
Are you going to throw out multiple data from families, since there could be a genetic effect that biases the results? ;-)

I sent you a little email since somebody told us to "get a room" over our banter:) We aren't in the same time zones and I must rise early.

I was shocked at how much more I could remember after a sugar load. 2 the first time, 7 the second. It made a big difference for most people. Did he try reversing it, doing the sugar-loaded trial first? Or do two trials, without sugar loading, to test the effects of practice?
Another fun variant is doing backward digit-span tests, where they have to repeat the sequence in reverse. This ties into mental processing rather than just memory.
