Abstract:
This study was made in order to esablish the method of the stature estimation of Chinese fe- males by measurement of the lumbar vertebrae.10 measurements for 37 lumbar vertebrae form Chinese fe- males of known age and stature were measured by the anthropometry.The analysis of the correlation be- tween the measurement results and the stature as well as the regression equations were made with the SPSS soft wear.The regression equations for the stature estimation of the Chinese females were as followsL1-5. L_1:Y= 592.010+0.161X_1+16.596X_2+13.922X_4+3.428X_5;r=0.751;s=45.0171.L_2:Y=641.280+19.733X_2- 0.420X_5+9.981X_6;r=0.698;s=48.2804.L_3:Y=516.200+26.079X_2+8.081X_6;r=0.758;s=43.3508.L_4:Y =1071.436+11.1133X_5;r=0.497;s=56.0890.L_5:Y=1111.890+4.17820X_5+10.335X_9;r=0.606;s= 53.3158.The regression equations can be used for the stature estimation of Chinese females.
