Abstract

The main purpose of this study is to examine the effects of cerebral lateralization on volleyball skills comprehensively. The task distribution between the right and left hemispheres of the brain and the effects of these hemispheres on the individual's motor skills, coordination ability, and reflexes constitute an important research topic in terms of sports performance. A sociodemographic information form, lateralization test and volleyball skill questionnaire were used for the participants. A total of 108 participants were reached. The SPSS package program was used to statistically analyze the data obtained at the end of the research. When the obtained data were examined, it was seen that there was no significant difference in volleyball basic skills scores according to lateralization groups (p>0.05). As a result, it can be said that the dominant hand usage status does not affect volleyball basic skills.
