Abstract

Different methods for measuring the second-to-fourth digit ratio (2D:4D), a putative marker for prenatal androgen exposure, may lead to varying values of 2D:4D. Specifically, it has been hypothesized that fingertip fat pads may be differentially deformed when taking palm images (photocopies or flatbed scans), but not when fingers are measured directly, thus yielding lower 2D:4D values from image-based measurements rather than direct ones. A measurement protocol for fingertip size is unavailable, as are data on finger and sex differences in this trait. Introducing such a protocol, this study found very large finger differences in adult fingertip size (largest for 4D, smaller for 3D and 5D, smallest for 2D), large side differences (larger in the left than in the right hand of right-handed subjects), but only small and not significant sex differences. Fingertip size was unrelated to image-based 2D:4D measurements, suggesting that fingertip size and the extent of finger and sex differences therein are unlikely to explain discrepant 2D:4D values obtained from image-based versus direct measurements.

摘要

测量第二至第四指比例(2D:4D)的不同方法可能会导致该比例出现不同数值,2D:4D被认为是产前雄激素暴露的一个标志。具体而言,有人提出,在获取手掌图像(影印件或平板扫描)时,指尖脂肪垫可能会发生不同程度的变形,但直接测量手指时则不会,因此基于图像的测量得出的2D:4D值会低于直接测量值。目前尚无指尖大小的测量方案,也没有关于该特征在手指和性别方面差异的数据。通过引入这样一种方案进行研究发现,成人指尖大小在手指间存在非常大的差异(第四指最大,第三指和第五指较小,第二指最小),在左右手之间也存在较大差异(右利手受试者左手比右手大),但性别差异较小且不显著。指尖大小与基于图像的2D:4D测量结果无关,这表明指尖大小以及其中手指和性别的差异程度不太可能解释基于图像测量与直接测量所得出的2D:4D值之间的差异。
