[Criteria of dimensional typology of the face and body constitution of young men].

On the grounds of results of combined anthropometrical examination of 1108 Russian juveniles 17-21 years old the relationship between face dimensions and various complex of somatic characteristics and constitutional types from Shtefko-Ostrovsky scheme was studied. The medium-sized relationship (correlation coefficient less 0.6) between parameters of various morphological subsystems "face-body" was established. Two integrative indices describing general face size and shape were calculated with the method of factor analysis. The tendency to macroprosopy in the row from asthenoid to digestive constitutional type from Shtefko-Ostrovsky scheme (p < 0.001) was revealed with the help of various statistic methods. Estimating equations to determine individual variant of general face size and shape and male somatotype by V. V. Bunak and Shtefko-Ostrovsky schemes were done for practical use the received results.
