ANTHROPOMETRY OF THE HUMAN EAR (A PHOTOGRAMMETRIC STUDY OF USAF FLIGHT PERSONNEL)

Abstract

A technique was developed that enables precisely specified ear dimensions to be measured directly from PhotoMetriC slides. Summary statistics for each of the various ear dimensions are presented for a sample of 500 subjects randomly chosen from a total series of 2236 photographic slides collected during the 1957 Authropometric Survey of USAF Male Flying Personnel. Regression equations for predicting the various ear dimensions from Ear Length and Ear Breadth are presented. A complete intercorrelation matrix for all variables studied in this research is also shown. The reliability and objectivity of the technique are discussed.
