Growth and somatotype patterns of manus children, territory of Papua and New Guinea
The growth and somatotype patterns of Manus children, Territory of Papua and New Guinea, reflected in anthropometric measurements and somatotype photographs, is reported for 438 children, ranging from 15 months of age to maturity. Somatotype distributions and individual somatotype photographs indicate little difference between boys and girls from age 1 to 4 years; between age 5 and 9 years boys shift toward higher second component ratings; betwee…
A somatotype method for young boys
The purpose of this study was to determine the relationships between the three somatotype componets and selected structural, strength and motor performance characteristics of 12 year old boys. Zero‐order correlations, first‐order partials, and multiple correlations were computed in an effort to find the variables most highly related to each somatotype component. Although no single anthropometric measure had a correlation of sufficient magnitude w…
A modified somatotype method
A new and improved somatotype method with universal application to both sexes, for all ages and which is reproducible, is justified, validated and described. Evidence is presented for extension of previous component rating scales. Data on 844 male and female subjects from selected samples were used to develop and validate anthropometric scales for estimating the Heath component ratings. The definitions and rating procedures for the new somatotype…
A comparison of somatotype methods
In order to compare Parnell's and Heath's somatotype methods, the authors independently somatotyped a series of 59 adult male and 61 adult female subjects, (1) using the criteria of Heath's method, (2) using the criteria of Parnell's method, and (3) taking into consideration tentatively adapted Parnell criteria in addition to Heath's criteria. The authors conclude that when use similar rating criteria their mean differences are smaller, their ove…
