Abstract

A 36 year-old man with unusual handwriting difficulties was tested for writing ability with the right and left hands shortly before and after a spontaneous change of writing habits. After only 10 mos. practice with the previously non-preferred (left) hand, handwriting speed and legibility was comparable on the two sides.
