• Sex differences in sports interest and motivation: An evolutionary perspective. (2015, background): “These include fluctuating asymmetry (Longman, Stock, & Wells, 2011; Manning & Pickup, 1998), second-to-fourth digit ratio (2D:4D; reviewed in Hönekopp & Schuster, 2010), and facial attractiveness (Ahn & Lee, 2014; Park, Buunk, & Wieling, 2007; Postma, 2014; Williams, Park, & Wieling, 2010).”
• 20 years later: deliberate practice and the development of expertise in sport (2014, background): “Similarly, research highlighting the consistent predictive ability of stable biological factors such as digit ratio (2D:4D; e.g. Baker et al., 2013; Hönekopp & Schuster, 2010) reinforces the conclusion that the acquisition of expertise is not simply a matter of accumulating DP.”
