This data set was preserved and included in the archives of the Aerospace Medical Research Laboratory (AMRL) by Charles Clauser and John McConville. The archive was called the AMRL Data Bank Library and the data were originally stored on 9 mm magnetic tapes and in a standardized format in Fortran Code.
THIS GROUP IS A COMBINATION OF THREE SUBSAMPLES COLLECTED AS PART OF A SERIES OF SURVEYS OF U.K. ARMY ANTHROPOMETRY BY THE BRITISH RESEARCH ESTABLISHMENT'S APPLIED PHYSIOLOGY DIVISION. THE THREE SUBSAMPLES COMBINED ARE; THE ROYAL ARTILLERY ( N=503 ), JULY'75, THE ROYAL INFANTRY ( N=534 ), AUG'73, AND THE ROYAL ARMOURED CORPS ( N=500 ), JUNE'72. A CODED VARIABLE IS INCLUDED AND SPECIFIED BELOW TO ENABLE THE BREAKOUT OF THESE GROUPS SEPARATELY IF DESIRED. THE PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATOR FOR THIS RESEARCH WAS C.Y. GOODERSON WHO SUPPLIED THE DATA TO C.E. CLAUSER, AFAMRL. A TOTAL OF 60 DIMENSIONS, PLUS AGE, WERE MEASURED USING THE MODIFIED MORANT METHOD AND EQUIPMINT DEVELOPIED BY THE RAE AND IAM, FARNBOROUGH. FOR A DESCRIPTION OF LANDMARKS AND MEASURING TECHNIQUE REFER TO THE ANTHROPOMETRY OF 500 ROYAL ARMOURED CORPS SERVICEMEN 1972, N.E. INCE, SUSAN REDRUPS, AND JANE PIPER. OR TO THE ANTRROPOMETRY OF 500 INFANTRYMEN 1973-1974, C.Y. GOODERSON AND MARGARET BEEBEE.
