Distribution of the kinematic misalignment between the receding and approaching position angles Ψ_kin−kin for the stellar (left, blue histogram) and the ionized gas (right, red histogram) components of the interacting sample. In each plot, line-filled histograms represent the distribution of Ψ_kin−kin for the control sample. Solid lines represent the misalignment which includes 90% of the control sample. Dashed lines represent the same value for the interacting sample. The bins located in the gray areas represent those galaxies where is not possible to determine Ψ_kin−kin.
