Abstract:
In order to study the relationship between the height and the measured results of body parts,the length of the foot,the width of the foot palm,the whole length of the hand,and the length of the forfinger,middle finger,little finger as well as the height of 489 young people were measured.The data was then analyzed by the digital computer.The results showed that the linear relationship existed between the height and the measurement results of six body parts mentioned above in males.The linear regression equations were as follows:(1)y=93 55x+3 26x(by the length of the foot);(2)y=130 79+4 18x(by the width of the foot palm);(3)y=76 15+5 33x(by the whole length of the hand);(4)y=108 61+8 76x(by the length of the forefinger);(5)y=94 85+9 47x(by the length of middle finger);(6)y=120 79+8 68x(by the length of the little finger).Also,the linear relationship existed between the height and the whole length of the hand and the length of the middle finger,The regression equations were as follows:(1)y=119 86+2 44x(by the whole length of the hand);(2)y=129 89+4 08x(by the length of the middle finger).There is not any linear relationship existed between the height and the measurement results of these rwo body parts as mentioned above.
