Prevalence in general population (GP): common [~4,5% | 1:1 | weight: 1,00]


Most likely diagnostic options for a hypothenar whorl - this involves a whorl in the lower ulnar side of the palm (ranked by 'weight' for the general population):

- ASSOCIATED PSYCHOLOGICAL CONDITIONS:

high Agreeableness (A+) [~11% | 1:4 | weight: 0,61]
autistic spectrum disorder [~16,5% | 1:68 | weight: 0,05]
schizophrenia [~10% | 1:100 | weight: 0,02]


- ASSOCIATED MEDICAL CONDITIONS:

trisomy 21 (= Down syndr.) [~15% | 1:700 | w: 0,005]
arthrogryposis [~25% | 1:10K | weight: 0,0006]
Turner syndrome [?% | 1:2K | weight: ?]
Kabuki syndrome [?% | 1:32K | weight: ?]

Hypothenar whorl (whorl on mount of moon).

Quick summary:
only a considerable minorty of hands with a hypothenar whorl score high for the Big Five personality dimension Agreeableness (~13,5% versus only ~4,5% in the general population).

[In every 100 hypothenar whorl cases in the general population (GP) you can expect to find about 61 high Agreeableness cases, 5 autistic spectrum disorder cases, etc.]


NOTICE: Keep in mind that every single hand sign always bares the potential
to have an association with multiple psychology- and/or health related themes;
a solid assessment always requires a consideration of hand sign combinations!
