Abstract

Stature estimation is a commonly used parameter in identification searched by medico-legal experts and forensic anthropologists. Examination of footprints provides important evidence in a crime scene investigation and helps in estimation of stature of a criminal. The present study examines the relationship between stature and foot dimensions among a diverse population group. To estimate stature; measurements of foot length (FL), foot breadth (FB) were used in this study. Measurements were obtained from 250 volunteers. The best correlation value were detected in foot dimensions as FL variable for males r=0.575. Lengths measurements belong to foot dimensions were more useful parameters than breadth measurements of those in stature estimation.

Abstract

Boy uzunluğunun tahmini adlî tıp uzmanları ve adlî antropologlar tarafından kimlik
tespitinde yaygın bir şekilde kullanılmaktadır. Ayak izleri olay yeri incelemesinde
önemli kanıtlar sağlayabilmekte, boy uzunluğunun tespit edilmesi ise kriminal olayları
aydınlatabilmektedir. Elinizdeki çalışmada, farklı kökenden insanların yaşadığı bir
grupta ayak boyutları ile boy uzunluğu arasındaki ilişkiler ele alınmaktadır. Boy
uzunluğunu tahmin etmek için ayak uzunluğu (AU) ve ayak genişliği (AG) ölçüleri
kullanılmıştır. Ölçüler 250 gönüllü denek üzerinde alınmıştır. Boy uzunluğu ile daha
yüksek bir korelasyon gösteren değişken ayak uzunluğudur (r=0,575). Boy uzunluğunu
tahmin etmede ayağa ilişkin uzunluk ölçülerinin daha başarılı olduğu sonucuna
ulaşılmıştır.
