TEST 1 : HEIGHT 05 TEST I Height, standing and sitting.—The general purpose of thistest is, of course, to furnish a measurement of height as an in-dex of physical size or growth for the sake of comparison withmental traits or with other physical traits. It is included inpractically every series of tests that include any physical meas-urements. Apparatus.—Stadiometer (Fig. 4). Small calipers (Fig. 5)or millimeter FIG. 4. STADIOMETER, OR HEIGHT STAND. Graduated in tenths of inches on one side and millimeters on the other. Method.— (1) For standing height, the examiner, E, should,when feasible, have the subject, S, remove his shoes, and standon the stadiometer with the heels together and with heels, but-tocks and spine between the shoulders, and the head, all in con-tact with the measuring rod. The chin must not be undulyraised or depressed. E then brings down the sliding arm of theinstrument until it rests squarely, but without excessive pres-sure, upon *Ss head. G6 ANTHROPOMETRIC TESTS (2) For sitting height, let & sit erect upon the stand of thestadiometer with spine and head in contact with the measuringrod.
