摘要:
Internal diams. are more closely correlated with capacity than external, the gain in accuracy of prediction being 23%. Thickness of the bone is only slightly correlated with external measurements. The mean internal length is significantly greater on the right side than on the left. This result agrees with that of Braune on brain weight but contradicts the doctrine that the left hemisphere is the larger in right handed persons. The proportion of skulls in which the right side is longer than the left is close to the Mendelian 75%.
