AB  - Bu çalışmada; yıldız erkek hentbolcuların 2D:4D parmak oranı ile sürat ve çeviklik performans değerleri arasındaki ilişkinin incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Araştırmaya toplam 47 yıldız erkek sporcu (yaş:15,26±1,21, boy:168,09±8,47, ağırlık:63,34±13,58) dâhil oldu. Katılımcıların boy uzunluğu, vücut ağırlığı, 2D (işaret parmağı) ve 4D (yüzük parmağı) uzunlukları ve fiziksel performansları ölçüldü. Verilerin analizi SPSS istatistik programında “Spearman korelasyon” testi ile değerlendirildi. Elde edilen sonuçlara göre; hentbolcuların 2D parmak uzunluğu ortalamasının 72,11±8,82 mm, 4D parmak uzunluğu ortalamasının 73,53±8,74 mm, 2D:4D oran ortalamasının 0,98±0,02 olduğu, Sprint test (ST) süresi ortalamasının 4,32±0,35 saniye, İllionis Çeviklik Test (İÇT) süre ortalamasının 17,36±0,71 saniye olduğu tespit edilmiştir. 2D:4D parmak oranı ile ST ve İÇT süresi arasında anlamlı, pozitif yönlü ve orta düzeyde (p

N2  - In this study; it was aimed to examine the relationship between 2D:4D finger ratio and speed and agility performance values of cadet male handball players. A total of 47 cadet male handball players (age: 15.26±1.21, height: 168.09±8.47, weight: 63.34±13.58) were included in the research. Participants' height, body weight, 2D (index finger) and 4D (ring finger) lengths and physical performance were measured. The analysis of the data was evaluated with the "Spearman correlation" test in the SPSS statistical program. According to the results obtained; the average 2D finger length of handball players was 72.11±8.82 mm, the average 4D finger length was 73.53±8.74 mm, the average 2D:4D ratio was 0.98±0.02, the average sprint test (ST) duration was 4.32±0.35 and the average Illionis Agility Test (IAT) time was 17.36±0.71 seconds. There was a significant, positive and moderate correlation between 2D:4D finger ratio and ST and IAT duration (p
