skymama 37 #1 May 24, 2007 I heard about this new study on tv this morning. They polled students who took the SAT on which finger was longer, the index or ring finger and then looked at the results of their test. Apparently their studies found that if the index finger is longer than the ring finger, you are better at English. If your ring finger is longer than your index finger, you are better at Math. So, check out your hand. Is the study correct for you? My index finger is longer, but I think I'm better at Math. I just talked to my son about it and he told me I'm better at English. I guess I'm not much help in his eyes with his Math homework.

skymama 37 #8 May 24, 2007 Quote what does it mean if the diddling finger is the longest one??? It means you should have spent more time studying and less time diddling while you were in school. This explains a lot though.

talon1206 0 #24 May 24, 2007 This has a lot to do with digit ratio research. The root of the index v. ring finger length lies in the androgen concentrations in utero. If you are interested in exploring further google is always a good place to start. I had a class in college that explored the more liberal research areas in psychology, digit ratios, phrenology ect.

JENNR8R 0 #25 May 24, 2007 I've always heard that is a pretty accurate way to determine the sex of an individual. Most females have longer index fingers. Most males have longer ring fingers. For years I've looked at babies hands and it is usually accurate.What do you call a beautiful, sunny day that comes after two cloudy, rainy ones? -- Monday.
