Figure 2. Box plot of LPD (left) and NOF variables (right), showing the comparison between right-handed (RH) and left-handed (LH) research subjects. The median LPD was found to be significantly reduced in the LH compared to the RH group (effect size: r = .11), while the differences in NOF (r = .06) was not statistically significant. Note: the values on the y-axis are log-transformed for readability.
