Simple and multiple discriminant functions using mid-shaft femoral circumference for the determination of sex were used to test a sexing method recently proposed by Black. The method was able to correctly assign sex for 82% of the sample, which consisted of 115 North American White femora of verified age and sex. Circumference proved as accurate as any other criteria that have been used in sexing the femur. This suggests a usefulness beyond the limited archaelogical scope originally proposed by Black.
使用股骨中段周长的单变量和多变量判别函数来确定性别，以此检验布莱克最近提出的一种性别鉴定方法。该方法能够正确地对样本中82%的个体进行性别判定，样本包括115根已核实年龄和性别的北美白人股骨。股骨周长被证明与用于股骨性别鉴定的任何其他标准一样准确。这表明其用途超出了布莱克最初提出的有限考古范围。
