摘要:Based on the coefficient of racial likeness, a division into 5 groups is suggested: (A) Serbo-Croats, Turks, Greeks, Magyars, Slovenes, Roumanians, Czechs, Great Russians, Italians (Siena), with short skulls and large height-length index; (B) Swiss, Alsatians, Badensians, Wurtenberger, Bavarians (Altbayerisch and Waischenfeld), Vorarlberger, Tyrolese, English Bronze Age, with broad skulls and large breadth-height index; (C) Etruscans, Pompeians, Basques, Guanche, French, Copts; (D) English (Wh...

摘要:If 2 cranial series have a coefficient <3.0 they are probably from the same homogeneous population. The Hindu series tested are in striking accord, but the Dravidian series do not agree well among themselves, or with the Hindu series.

摘要:A comparison of the definitions and technique of measurements on the living head used by various anthropologists. As a result of lack of agreement on a standard method from 55% to 70% of the usefulness of the material is wasted..

摘要:Highly correlated characters and those with large errors of measurement should be avoided. A coefficient <3 probably does not mark a real racial difference. A correction for size of population is proposed.

摘要:Thirty-nine [male] crania have the following means: maximum length, 168.25 mm.; maximum breadth, 147.79 mm.; cephalic index, 87.89; basi-bregmatic height, 135.96 mm.; vertical index, 80.84; basi-nasal length, 96.44 mm.; basi-alveolar length, 93.52 mm.; orbital breadth, 38.56 mm.; orbital height, 33.65 mm. The closest resemblance is with Tildesley''s Burmese A crania. Type contours are given. The Hylam Chinese are the product of the blending of Chinese proper from the northern provinces with th...

摘要:In Pairman and Pearson''s corrections a better result may be obtained by determining q from the observed data instead of giving it the mean value 1/2. Formulae for doing this are derived and auxiliary tables given.

摘要:A note on Helen M. Walker''s The relation of Plana and Bravais to the theory of correlation (Isis 10: 466 484. 1928). Plana had the idea of making 2 variates interrelated by supposing them linear functions of the same variates, but no single symbol of his notation is equivalent to the coefficient of correlation.

摘要:In 1911 the mean yield for a lactation period of 36.78 weeks was 634.82 gal.; in 1912 the yield for 37.41 weeks was 654.20 gal. Butterfat was 3.7% in both yrs. The distributions of milk yield, percentage of butter fat, weeks in milk, and yield of butter fat are fitted by Pearsonian Type IV curves. The coefficients of variation are 8.7-43.4. The correlation of milk yield and fat % is[long dash].16; the regressions are practically linear. The regressions of milk yield, fat %, and fat yield on ag...
