A woman’s finger length may determine how strong they are, study says

 

研究:女性的手指長度可能決定她們多強壯

【摘要2022.1.10..自由】陳成良

Researchers found that women who have an index finger that’s shorter than their ring finger could actually have more strength.

研究人員發現,食指比無名指短的女性力氣可能更大。

The Austrian study looked specifically at handgrip strength and people’s 2D:4D ratios.

奧地利這項研究特別分析手掌握力與人們第2和第4根手指長度的比率關係。

The 2D:4D ratio is the most studied digit ratio and is calculated by dividing the length of the index finger of a given hand by the length of the ring finger of the same hand.

2D4D比值是最常被研究的數字比值之一,它的計算方法是將某隻手的食指長度除以同一隻手的無名指長度。

Published in Proceedings of the Royal Society, Biological Sciences, the experts found women with a lower 2D:4D ratio had higher strength grip than those with a higher ratio.

專家發現,2D4D比例較低的女性往往力氣更大。研究結果發表在《英國皇家學會生物學分會學報》。
