"Brugger hypothesized that schizotypes should make novel associations faster because they are better at accessing both hemispheres – a prediction that was verified in a subsequent study. His theory can also explain research which shows that a disproportional number of schizotypes and schizophrenics are neither right nor left hand dominant, but instead use both hands for a variety of tasks, suggesting that they recruit both sides of their brains for a variety of tasks more so than the average person."

At last, I know why I take pen and fork in the left hand but throw and do a variety of other tasks with the right hand! I'm also pretty positive I'm a "schizotype" as they say.
