Determining Possible Differing Adverbial Placement Between The Linguistic Structures Of Left- And Right-Handed Writers, David Sanford Ramsey

Theses Digitization Project

This thesis has attempted to determine if there are differences, concerning adverbial placement, between the sentences of left- and right-handed writers. To make this determination, I have statistically analyzed compositions of eight graduate students (four left-handed and four right-), and two left-handed published authors' (Lewis Carroll's and Mark Twains) private correspondence.
