You would need to use the 2 sample t-test to test for a difference in two populations. You need another larger sample to see if the accuracy of this one and you would need to know in the general population finger length vs those diagnosed. The study was interesting but more research is needed. I provided some statistical links as well.

Its interesting. Trying to tell if someone has a neurosis by their fingers. In my opinion its understandable. The human body will show signs of personality or behavioural patterns. Personal experience has even led me to believe that simple lines in ones hands can represent active personality traits that can lead to problems in the near future. This was done by an Indian coworker at one time who simply knew what the lines meant and he diagnosed what my problems were. He used to be in business with another gentleman who got a kick out of this coworker reading his palm. He said such practice actually made him better able to read palms only because this business man's lines were a giant story book. He also did note the fingers themselves but I don't remember much on that. Maybe this study could open up more in the future.
