Abstract
In 1985 and 1986 anthropologic measurements at 18 measurements points were conducted on 1,584 children at the age of 3 months. We evaluated these measurements by means of correlation-, factor- and principal characteristic analysis. Three groups of correlating measurements were found: length, skeleton robustness and body mass. The following measurements are recommended as most important for physical investigations of babies: for length: height and arm length; for skeleton robustness: shoulder width; for body mass: weight and subscapular skinfold thickness.
