Analisa
sidik jari saat ini menjadi topik hangat yang diperdebatkan mengenai
keabsahan ilmiahnya. Namun, perlu dipahami bahwa pemanfaatan sidik jari
juga sudah dipergunakan dari dahulu. Hal ini dilakukan oleh Zhai Guijun,
dalam makalahnya Report on Study of Multivariate Intelligence Measurement through Dermatoglyphic Identification,
Beijing Oriental KeAo Human Intelligence Potential Research Institute
Zhengzhou DongFangZhou Intelligence Measurement & Consultation
Research Center Wuhan University Oriental Intelligence Research &
Test Center, yang dipublikasi pada 15 april 2006.
Berikut kutipan pernyataan yang dibuat oleh Zhai Guijun dalam makalahnya :
I started to study the correlation of dermatoglyph (fingerprints) and human intelligence in
1988.
Through 19-year continuous efforts, I have established a preliminary
systematic method for intelligence measurement through Dermatoglyphic
identification. I have successively made study, measurement and sampling
of over 40 thousand people in 25 regions of China, and gradually
improved the practice and theory of Multivariate Intelligence
Measurement through Dermatoglyphic Identification, as well as made it
highly reliable and effective.
The
method of Multivariate Intelligence Measurement through Dermatoglyphic
Identification passed the Science and Technology Achievement Appraisal
(YKYCZ9212) by Henan Academy of Sciences on October 4, 1992, and
also passed the demonstration jointly presided by the Genetics Society
of China, the Working Committee for Popular Science Activities under
China Psychological Society, and the Working Committee for Health Care
of Women and Children under China International Exchange and Promotive
Association for Medical and Health Care (CPAM) on April 15, 2006.
Zhai
Guijun mengemukakan bahwa dengan memanfaatkan sidik jari dalam
penelitian ini hasil yang ia peroleh relatif konsisten dengan angka
reliabilitas 0.798, 0.725, 0.840, dan 0.381 dengan melakukan pengukuran
pada anak-anak sekolah dasar. Validitasnya adalah 0.995.
Hasil yang diperoleh dari penelitian ini :
The study on multivariate intelligence measurement through dermatoglyphic identification (finger print) makes physiological and physical measurement of human intelligence
possible.It is most likely an easily workable and accurate intelligence
measurement before people can make precise determination of human
intelligence from gene level.
It is possible to become the latest generation of intelligence measurement methods in succession to “Assessment Scale”. Multivariate intelligence measurement through
dermatoglyphic identification is capable to accurately identify the
intelligence difference and personality difference of individuals.
Therefore it may be used by schools or institutions in making
appropriate selection of different talents. Dermatoglyph is the external
existence of human genes and brains, and may also be considered as a
representation of DNA sequence.
Dengan demikian, dapat disimpulkan bahwa berdasarkan penelitian yang dilakukan Zhai Guijun, finger print analysis dapat dijadikan sebagai salah satu metode untuk mengukur potensi yang dimiliki oleh individu.
