Abstract

SUMMARYThe plantar dermatoglyphic prints of 125 male and 125 female Panjabi Indians have been studied in order to determine the relative incidence of symmetry and asymmetry.Females tend to possess a higher degree of symmetry than males. On the contrary, asymmetry shows a preponderence in males.The differences between males and females are statistically significant when total symmetry is compared to total asymmetry, or when a comparison is made between the three groups of S and A. However, when the total symmetry and the rest of the combinations taken together are studied statistically, the differences appear to be of doubtful significance.
