초록

왼손잡이는 유전성을 가지고 있으며 오른손잡이와 대뇌조직화의 양상이 서로 다르며 인체의 비대칭성은발생초기에 어느 한쪽의 세포분열이 더 빠르다는 것을 암시한다. 지문 역시 유전성향이 있고 개인마다 다르며 선천적으로 결정되어 일생동안 변하지 않는다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 한국인을 대상으로 손잡이 유형을 분류하고, 손잡이 유형에 따른 지문의 특징을 분석함으로써 지문이 선천적으로 우세한 손에 따라 유전적으로 차이가 있는지 확인해 보고자 하였다. 연구대상은 대전∙O충남지역의 대학생 1,063명을 대상으로 손잡이 평가도구를 이용하여 평가한 후 지문채취에동의한 199명(왼손잡이: 55명, 오른손잡이: 144명)이었으며 수집된 자료는 SPSS 15.0을 이용하여 신뢰도분석, 교차분석, X2 test, independent t-test, paired t-test로 분석하였다. 손잡이 유형에 따른 지문의 성별 빈도는, 남자와 여자 모두 왼손잡이가 오른손잡이보다 활형이 많고(남자 4.7%,여자 12.3%) 소용돌이형은 적었으며(남자 31.3%, 여자 38.2%), 왼손잡이와 오른손잡이 모두 성별에 따라 지문분포순서에 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 왼손과 오른손 모두 왼손잡이가 오른손잡이보다 활형과 자쪽고리형이많고 노쪽고리형과 소용돌이형은 적었다. 왼손과 오른손의 손잡이에 따른 손가락별 지문유형은 왼손에서 가운데손가락(p⁄O0.05), 반지손가락(p⁄\0.05), 새끼손가락(p⁄O0.01)이 손잡이 유형에 따라 유의하게 다른 것으로 나타났다. 지문의 능선 수는 왼손잡이가 왼손 집게손가락(10.2)과 가운데손가락(11.4)에서, 그리고 오른손 가운데손가락(11.0)과 반지손가락(14.0)에서 오른손잡이보다 유의하게 적은 것으로 나타났다(p⁄\0.05). 삼교차점수는 양손 모두 왼손잡이가 가운데손가락, 반지손가락, 새끼손가락에서 유의하게 오른손잡이보다 적은 것으로 나타났으며, 총삼교차점수도 왼손잡이(12.6)가 오른손잡이(14.1)보다 유의하게 적었다(p⁄\0.05). 지문의 형태는 손잡이의 유형에 따라 지문유형 분포, 피부능선수, 삼교차점에서 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났으며,특히 왼손잡이에서 활형이 두드러지게 나타나고, 왼손에서 왼손잡이와 오른손잡이의 지문차이가 현저한 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 지문은 선천적으로 우세한 손잡이의 발달에 따라 유전성을 반영하는 것으로 사료된다.

Abstract

Left handedness is known to be related with inheritance and is different from right handedness in brain development and various aspects of perceptive and cognitive performance. Fingerprints are also related with inheritance and do not change for the whole life. In addition, individuals have different fingerprints. The aim of the present study was to identify genetic correlation between fingerprints and handedness by examining how different fingerprints are between left handers and right handers. The study group to imprint fingerprints was composed of 55 left handers and 144 right handers of 1063 college students. The reliability of handedness assessment tool was Cronbach’Os α=0.948. The imprinted fingerprints were classified by fingerprint type (arch, radial loop, ulnar loop, whorl). Finger ridges and triradii in fingerprints were also counted. We performed frequency analysis, reliability analysis, cross-tabs analysis, X2 test, independent t-test, paired ttest by SPSS win 15.0 for the data. The left handed males and females exhibited more arch types than the right handers and less whorl types than the right handers. The left handers in both hands exhibited more arch and ulnar loop types than the right handers and less whorl and radial loop types than the right handers. In the left hand, the 3rd (p⁄O0.05), 4th (p⁄O0.05), and 5th (p⁄O0.01)fingerprints of the left handers were different from those of the right handers. The finger ridge counts of left handers were significantly less than those of the right handers in the 2nd and 3rd fingers of the left hand, and in the 3rd and 4th fingers in the right hand. The triradii counts of left handers were significantly less than those of right handers (p⁄O0.05)in the 3rd, 4th, and 5th finger of the left and right hand. Total triradii counts of left handers were also significantly less than those of right handers (p⁄O0.05). These results demonstrate that fingerprint type, finger ridge and triradius counts of the left handers are different from those of the right handers, and fingerprints may reflect genetic tendency for handedness.
