Low Digit Ratio 2D∶4D in Alcohol Dependent Patients
The ratio of the lengths of the second and fourth finger (2D∶4D) has been described as reflecting the degree of prenatal androgen exposure in humans. 2D∶4D is smaller for males than females and is associated with traits such as left-handedness, physical aggression, attention-deficit-hyperactivity disorder and a genetic polymorphism of the androgen receptor. All of these traits are known to be c...
متن کاملLow digit ratio (2D:4D) and late pubertal onset indicate prenatal hyperandrogenziation in alcohol binge drinking
BACKGROUND Alcohol binge drinking behavior is an important public health issue. Causal rodent and human associational studies show that reinforcement of prenatal androgen signaling increases alcohol consumption in adulthood. However, the effects of prenatal androgen exposure on adult binge drinking patterns have not been investigated yet. METHOD We analyzed data from 2225 participants of an o...
متن کاملLow second to fourth digit ratio in Dupuytren disease
The ratio of the lengths of the second and fourth digits (2D:4D) has been described as reflecting endogenous prenatal androgen exposure. In general, 2D:4D is lower in men than in women and has potential as a biomarker or predictor for various diseases, athletic ability, and academic performance. Dupuytren disease has digital flexion contractures and is known to predominate in men, but the patho...
متن کاملAlcohol-Attentional Bias in Alcohol-Dependent and Cocaine-Dependent Patients
Background: Substance-related attentional bias refers to the reactivity to substance-related cues. This attentional bias to drugs has been examined in different addictive disorders such as cocaine, alcohol or tobacco dependence. There is extensive evidence regarding the attentional bias to alcohol-related cues in Alcohol Dependent (AD) patients. Furthermore, there is evidence regarding the high...
متن کاملOverconfidence, Incentives and Digit Ratio
This paper contributes to a better understanding of the biological underpinnings of overconfidence by analyzing performance predictions in the Cognitive Reflection Test with and without monetary incentives. In line with the existing literature we find that the participants are too optimistic about their performance on average; incentives lead to higher performance; and males score higher than f...
