摘要:In 32 pedigrees 21 show continuous inheritance, 3 show discontinuous, and 7 show both. As epicanthus tends to disappear with advancing age, some of the apparently discontinuous cases probably were really continuous.

摘要:The mean distance at which diamond type can be read without glasses is significantly greater for the right eye than for the left. There is considerable probability that light eyes can see farther than dark and some evidence, but far from conclusive, that dark-haired persons can see farther than light-haired.

摘要:Four factors controlling the dimensions and shapes of the cranial bones are distinguished: (1) Factor of homology, measured by correlations between corresponding lengths and indices of homologous bones. The mean correlation for lengths is 0.82, for indices 0.74. (2) Factor of size, measured by correlation of lengths on different bones on the same side, or on heterologous bones on opposite sides. The mean cor-relation is 0.18. (3) Factor of shape, measured by correlation between indices of bone...

摘要:The new instrument measures int. diams. more accurately than Weinert''s. The skull cap is thicker at the bregma than at the euryon. [male] skulls are in general a little thicker than [female]. There are marked sexual and racial differences in thickness of os frontale at glabella. The indices of int. diams. show increases over the external, greatest in ht.-length, less in breadth-length, least in ht.-breadth. There is less racial differentiation in the int. breadth-length index than in the exte...

摘要:The affected persons have a white frontal blaze of hair and unpigmented areas of skin on forehead, chest, abdomen, arms and legs. The proportion of affected agrees closely with that expected if the piebald condition is due to a single dominant gene. Both sexes are about equally affected.

摘要:The most reliable of the measurements taken are length, weight, and stem length. The group was typical of other groups reported in the literature, except that after 6 mos. its members averaged taller and heavier than children in other parts of the U. S. A., except for selected groups. Growth in all dimensions was retarded, rapidly at first, and then more slowly. In proportion to their size at 1 mo., the width measures of hip, chest and shoulder increased more rapidly during the 1st yr. than an...

摘要:Neyman and Pearson''s method of determining the likelihood of hypotheses is extended to such problems as the following: Given several bivariate samples, are the regression lines and the variances about them identical within limits of sampling? If the variances are identical are the regression lines the same, etc.?.

摘要:Calculations based on the exact values of the sampling moments confirm the accuracy of E. S. Pearson''s table, which was based on approximate values. The table is extended.
