I came across this when looking into a combination of factors; left-handedness, increased spatial reasoning ability, and autism. The path took me on a bit of a journey. As a leftie, I just thought I’d share this one.

Which means 72% of autistic people are right-handed.
If we were to claim there is a link: right-handedness increases risks of autism?
"The researchers found that individuals on the autism spectrum were 2.49 times more likely to be left-handed than people without autism.
Altogether, about 28 percent of individuals on the autism spectrum were left-handed as compared to about 10 percent in the general population.
Moreover, individuals on the autism spectrum were 2.34 times more likely to be mixed-handed than the general population and 3.48 times more likely to be either left-handed or mixed-handed than the general population."
