ObjectiveAlthough the relationship between anthropometry andgrip strength has been determined between differentethnic populations, few studies have addressed theirimpact on performance. This study was conductedto evaluate the hypothesis that hand anthropometryis associated with grip strength and dexterity amongyoung adults.Material and Method197 healthy students between the ages of 18-25 includedin the study. The socio-demographic informationof the participants, including age, height, body weight,and gender, was recorded. As a hand anthropometricmeasurement, hand length, hand width, hand spamlength, finger length, and palm length were measuredwith a tape measure. Handgrip strength was evaluatedwith a handgrip dynamometer, and dexterity wasevaluated with the Nine-Hole Peg Test (NHPT).ResultsAccording to the results of our study, it was determinedthat all anthropometric measurements and gripstrength values and the NHPT insertion scores ofboth upper extremities were significantly higher inmen than in women (p

AmaçAntropometri ve kavrama kuvveti ilişkisi farklı etnik popülasyonlararasında saptanmış olsa da çok az sayıdakiçalışmada bunların performans üzerindeki etkisiele alınmıştır. Bu çalışma, el antropometrisinin gençyetişkinler arasında kavrama kuvveti ve el becerisi ileilişkili olduğu hipotezini değerlendirmek amacıyla yapıldı.Gereç ve YöntemÇalışmaya, 18-25 yaş aralığında 197 sağlıklı öğrencialındı. Katılımcıların yaş, boy, vücut ağırlığı, cinsiyetgibi bilgileri içeren sosyo-demografik bilgileri kaydedildi.El antropometrik ölçümü olarak; el uzunlukları, elgenişlikleri, el spam uzunlukları, parmak uzunluklarıve avuç içi uzunlukları mezura ile ölçüldü. El kavramakuvveti el kavrama dinamometresiyle, el beceri değerlendirmesiise Dokuz Delikli Peg Testiyle (DDPT) değerlendirildi.BulgularÇalışmamızın sonuçlarına göre tüm antropometrikölçümlerin ve kavrama kuvveti değerlerinin ve her ikiüst ekstremiteye ait DDPT Testi takma skorlarının erkeklerdekadınlardan anlamlı düzeyde yüksek olduğutespit edildi (p
