The researchers measured palmar flexion length of the finger phalanges of 202 boys and 208 girls and calculated average values of gold ratios of the flexor segments of fingers. The authors found that the average values of the golden ratio of palmar fingers length are in the range 1,38 ± 1,129 and increase at the ulnar direction with a maximum value at the V fingers. The lowest of the average values of the golden ratio indicators were identified for the I finger regardless of gender. Bilateral differences, regardless of gender identified for palmar I finger length.
