Natural selection and developmental sexual variation in the human pelvis.

American journal of physical anthropology - 1 Sept 1995

LaVelle M

Abstract excerpt

This research examines ontological patterns of change in variation of the human pelvis as a means of identifying regions of differential growth, growth canalization and evidence of selection. Data were derived from pelvic radiogrammetry of 180 8-year-olds and 89 subjects at age 18 who were part of the Fels Longitudinal Growth Study. Coefficients of variation (CVs) and total growth increments were compared between...
