Understanding Adverse Yaw in Aircraft by Shuvadeep Saha is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Moving the left aileron down and right aileron up causes the plane to roll right but should also cause it to yaw left due to adverse yaw. Adverse yaw occurs because the down aileron generates more drag, causing the plane to yaw left. However, some planes are equipped with devices like differential ailerons that reduce adverse yaw, allowing the plane to yaw right during the roll. Spoilers can also cause "proverse yaw", where the plane yaws and rolls in the same direction. The responder is unsure if the quest
