本研究共招募473名19~22岁浙江省汉族在校大学生为研究对象(男生161例;女生312例),采用直接测量法和中文版症状自评量表(SCL-90),获取双手第2~5指从腹侧近端折痕中点到尖端手指的直线距离来计算指长比。研究结果显示,浙江汉族大学生男、女生SCL-90中9个因子均值在1.409~1.973之间;除了躯体化和敌对两性间无差别外,其余各因子均值得分女生均高于男生。男、女生左右手R2/3、R3/4和左手R2/4比较无显著性差异外(P>0.05),其余各指长比女生均高于男生。男生左手R3/4与强迫症呈正相关,左手R4/5与强迫症呈负相关,右手R2/3与人际关系敏感、偏执呈负相关,右手R2/4与焦虑呈负相关,右手R2/5与人际关系敏感、焦虑呈负相关。女生右手R2/4与人际关系敏感、恐怖、偏执呈负相关,右手R3/4与恐怖呈负相关,右手R4/5与恐怖呈正相关,其余指长比与各因子无相关性。本研究初步证明了浙江汉族大学生指长比与心理健康状况之间可能存在联系,这可能是因为心理健康受多种复杂因素影响,包括生物学、环境和个人经历等,进而为指长比与人类心理健康的研究积累基础资料。

This study investigates the relationship between the digit ratio (specifically, the ratio of the second to the fourth finger, R2/4) and mental health status among Chinese Han ethnicity college students in Zhejiang. Mental health, defined as the state of well-being in which every individual realizes their own potential, can cope with the normal stresses of life, can work productively and fruitfully, and is able to make a contribution to their community, is of paramount concern in the educational context of Chinese universities. This research involved 473 Chinese Han ethnicity college students aged 19 to 22 from Zhejiang province (161 males and 312 females), with an average age of 20.24±0.651 years. The mental health of the participants was assessed using the Chinese version of the Symptom Checklist-90 (SCL-90), and digit ratios were calculated by measuring the linear distance from the midpoint of the proximal crease to the tip of the second to fifth fingers on both hands using an electronic digital caliper. The findings revealed that the average scores for the nine factors of the SCL-90 ranged between 1.409 and 1.973, with females scoring higher than males in all factors except for somatization and hostility, where no significant gender differences were observed. Apart from the R2/3 and R3/4 ratios of both hands and the R2/4 ratio of the left hand (P>0.05), all other digit ratios were significantly higher in females than in males. Among males, the R3/4 ratio of the left hand was positively correlated with obsessive-compulsive symptoms, whereas the R4/5 ratio was negatively correlated. The R2/3 and R2/4 ratios of the right hand were negatively correlated with interpersonal sensitivity, paranoia, and anxiety, respectively. The R2/5 ratio was negatively correlated with both interpersonal sensitivity and anxiety. In females, the R2/4 ratio of the right hand was negatively correlated with interpersonal sensitivity, phobia, and paranoia. The R3/4 ratio was negatively associated with phobia, while the R4/5 ratio showed a positive correlation. No significant correlations were found between other digit ratios and the SCL-90 factors. The preliminary results suggest a potential link between digit ratios and mental health status, influenced by a complex interplay of biological, environmental, and experiential factors. Future research should employ diverse methodologies to further validate the relationship between digit ratios and mental health and explore the underlying biological mechanisms. This study not only offers a new perspective for mental health research but also contributes to understanding the biological basis of human behavior and personality.
