AbstractA new and improved somatotype method with universal application to both sexes, for all ages and which is reproducible, is justified, validated and described. Evidence is presented for extension of previous component rating scales. Data on 844 male and female subjects from selected samples were used to develop and validate anthropometric scales ...

The hypothesis that somatotype is closely related to social skills and that the response of patients with social disability to social skills training might also relate to these genetically controlled factors has been supported. Twenty‐one subjects seeking treatment for social phobia were assessed by interview, videotape, diary, and somatotype measures.

Familial resemblance in somatotype
American Journal of Human Biology, 1993AbstractParent‐child, sibling, and spouse similarities in Health‐Carter somatotype components are considered in 938 individuals from 243 nuclear families of French Canadian ancestry. Familial correlations were considered for each somatotype component, after adjusting for age, gender, and the other somatotype components.
