kätisyyttä
Kätisyyttä, often translated as handedness, refers to the preferential use of one hand over the other for tasks requiring fine motor skills. This preference is typically observed for actions such as writing, throwing, or eating. While most people exhibit clear handedness, a smaller percentage are ambidextrous, meaning they can use either hand with equal proficiency, or mixed-handed, preferring different hands for different tasks.
The cause of handedness is complex and not fully understood. Genetics plays a significant role, with research
Historically, handedness has sometimes been viewed negatively, leading to pressure for individuals to conform to right-handedness.
