“…For an illustrative example, consider the search for behavioral correlates of the 2D:4D ratio. Many studies have reported significant (sometimes highly significant) correlations with aggression (see Hönekopp & Watson, 2011) and other behavioral measures in males and/or females (e.g., Del Giudice & Angeleri, 2016; Fink, Manning, & Neave, 2004; Manning & Fink, 2008; Millet & Dewitte, 2006; Ranson, Stratton, & Taylor, 2015; Richards, Stewart-Williams, & Reed, 2015), which again means that sample correlations were larger than one would expect in a sample from a population in which the variables are unrelated. Looking at the magnitude of the correlations (when these were reported) reveals that those that were significant were sometimes as low as .08 and hardly ever larger than .3, with very little (if any) theoretical value or practical utility.…”
