From the viewpoint of clothing construction, we measured 16 items of body parts with 498 samples in the period from 1963 to 1967. The subjects are freshman college girls (the average age 18 Years and 11 months).
The results :
(1) There are no essential differences in the body types among the results obtained in each year.
(2) There are no essential differences between rural subjects and urban subjects in the lengths of the body parts, but there are significant differences in the girths. The rural subjects are superior to the urban subjects in wrist girth (significant at less than 1% level), hip girth, neck base girth, armscye girth and posterior shoulder width (equally 5% level).
(3) The girth values obtained by the present investigation are superior to those obtained by the nationwide investigation on college girls, and the length values in the former investigation are inferior to the latter.
