Correlations between ridge-counts on the ten fingers were compared by race and sex in 11 samples representing Negroes and Caucasians: five from subsaharan Africa, one American Black, three European, one American White and one from India. The samples of European ancestry showed no consistent sex difference in mean correlation, although female American Whites significantly exceeded males. In three of the six Negro samples and in the Parsis of India males showed significantly higher average correlations than females. The pattern of sex and race differences suggests that the sex chromosomes, particularly the Y chromosome, play a role in dermal ridge development.
在代表黑人和白种人的11个样本中，按种族和性别比较了十指的嵴纹计数：5个来自撒哈拉以南非洲，1个美国黑人，3个欧洲人，1个美国白人，1个来自印度。欧洲血统的样本在平均相关性上没有一致的性别差异，尽管美国白人女性显著超过男性。在六个黑人样本中的三个以及印度的帕西人中，男性的平均相关性显著高于女性。性别和种族差异模式表明，性染色体，尤其是Y染色体，在皮嵴发育中起作用。
