It is unclear whether the relation between magical ideation and hand preference is the result of a bias in questionnaire-taking…

The effects of handedness and saccadic bilateral eye movements on autobiographical recollection were investigated. Recall of autobiographical memories was cued by the use of neutral and emotional words. Autobiographical recollection was assessed by the autobiographical memory questionnaire.
