西南地区成人男性颅骨的相关回归分析

Correlation and regression analysis of male skulls

目的研究颅骨部分测量指标间的相关性,以期建立在对破损颅骨进行颅骨面貌复原时,利用尚存指标推断缺失指标的方法。方法用人体骨骼测量仪对41个男性颅骨的颅长、颅宽、颅高等14个指标进行测量,将测量值输入SPSS统计软件,找出相关性好的指标,建立各指标间相互推断的回归方程。结果部分测量指标间呈中度以上相关,应用逐步回归的方法得出回归方程24个,方差检验均具统计学意义(P<0.01)。结论本研究所建立的回归方程可为法医人类学和考古人类学的颅骨修复提供备选方法。

Objective To study and establish regression equations of male skulls for repairing skull. Methods 41 male skulls were selected and 14 indexes included the largest cranial skull length, maximum width of skull and so on were measured, stepwise regression analysis method is used to establish the regression equations by SPSS statistical software. Results 24 linear regression equations were set up and the P-valus were lower than 0. 01. Conclusion Regression equations can be used for repairing skull in forensic anthropology and archaeology anthropology.
