To statistically analyse sitting posture using anthropometrics data among college students in Malaysia. This study was conducted among 52 college students consisting of males and females. Data were analysed using a common statistical tool which is the Statistical Package of Sosial Science (SPSS). Preliminary analysis of data indicated that there are wider differences in standard deviation of eye sitting height compared to the previous study conducted. This study was conducted at only one higher learning institution/college located at East Cost of Malaysia. The larger value of standard deviation discovered as statistical analysis performed using combined data among male and female participants suggested that data should be segregated. Result obtained could be used as a preliminary guideline to design any related item in related to sitting posture.
