Abstract
It is excepted that the physical measurements of the human body and the ratio of measu¬rements to each other are affected not only by age and sex but physical conditions, eating habits and socio-economic situations as well. For this reason, we aimed to study on one-hundred girl students who and whose parents were born and grew up in the Black Sea Region. The girls studied on had no physical abnormalities. We found that the mean height was 160.135 cm, the mean lower extremity length was 83.70 cm, the ratio bet¬ween the lower extremity and height was 52.56%, the mean foot lenght was 23.97 cm, the mean foot width was 9.48 cm, and the man foot index was 39.54%. We compared our findings with those in the literature and evaluated them.
İnsan vücuduna ait ölçümlerin ve birbirlerine olan oranlarının yaş ve cinsiyet faktörlerin¬den başka coğrafi şartlar, beslenme alışkanlıkları ve sosyo-ekonomik koşullar ile etkilene¬ceği beklenir. Bu amaçla, bu çalışma ana-babalan ve kendileri doğma-büyüme Karadeniz¬li olan ve fiziksel kusuru olmayan 100 öğrencide yapıldı. Ortalama boy uzunluğu 160.135 cm, alt ekstremite uzunluğu 83.70 cm, alt ekstremite uzunluğu-boy uzunluğu oranı %52.26, ayak uzunluğu 23.97 cm, ayak genişliği 9.48 cm, ayak indeksi %39.54 bulundu. Bulgularımız literatür bulguları ile karşılaştırılarak değerlendirildi.
