- gowld 8y agoRight-handed people, with their bias toward turning right, tend to walk anti-clockwise when entering a loop from the outside (such as grocery stores), and clockwise when entering from the inside. https://science.howstuffworks.com/life/inside-the-mind/human-brain/predictable-walking-patterns-counter-clockwise.htm https://science.howstuffworks.com/life/inside-the-mind/human... People who travel anti-clockwise see more stuff, because if they travel clockwise, then they'll turn right and toward the front/exit before they finish a complete loop around the store.
