Journal ArticleDOI
A comparison of somatotype methods
TL;DR: Parnell's method fails to modify the basic weaknesses in Sheldon's somatotype method, and analyses of the anthropometric data basic to Parnel's method will further objectify and simplify Heath's method, will improve agreement among independent raters, and will increase the usefulness of somatotyping as a research instrument.
Journal ArticleDOI
Growth and somatotype patterns of manus children, territory of Papua and New Guinea: Application of a modified somatotype method to the study of growth patterns
TL;DR: Comparison of height, weight and subscapula skinfold values show that the Manus children resemble the Kaiapit and Bundi children of the New Guinea highlands populations reported by Malcolm in the form of their growth curves but not in growth rates.
