Abstract

The article presents the results of a study devoted to the study of the values of the index "2D:4D" in 39 female athletes aged 18-20 years, engaged in pankration and judo wrestling. It was found that the largest representation of female athletes with finger proportions in the male type was in the group of girls engaged in judo wrestling (76%). It is shown that in sportswomen engaged in pankration the values of the finger index corresponding to the male type were met in 65% of cases. The conducted research showed that according to the index of the finger in various types of martial arts, they are dominated by athletes with genetically determined masculinization. Given the fact that the fingerprint index technique "2D:4D" is accessible and easy to use, it can be used as one of the informative criteria for the masculinization of the female body.
