Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder and fluctuating asymmetry in another college sample
Article Abstract:
A study was carried out on an independently collected sample of college students to determine Attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (AD/HD) that represents a developmental lag that might be reflected in fluctuating asymmetry (FA). The results showed a significant correlation between body FA and WURs measure in females after Benferron correction and AD/HD symptoms levels increased with an increase in body FA in female college students not selected for AD/HD

Attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) symptoms and digit ratios in a college sample
Article Abstract:
The relationship between digit ratios and attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) symptoms representing the three phenotypes are examined in a sample of European-descent college students not selected for ADHD. It is found that there were significant sex differences for the 2D:4D digit ratios of both hands and there are only two correlations between finger length ratios and the Wender Utah Rating Scale ADH/Combined behavioral measure in males.

Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (AD/HD) and fluctuating asymmetry (FA) in a college sample: an exploratory study
Article Abstract:
Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (AD/HD) is considered as one of the most common psychiatric conditions and is diagnosed if there are developmentally inappropriate levels of inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. AD/HD behaviors that positively correlate with fluctuating asymmetry (FA) in hand, heads, and fingerprints of a sample of college students are examined.
