Terry Collection innominates of 260 American whites and blacks (65 males and 65 females of each race) were analyzed by discriminant function analysis for sex assessment, race known, and for simultaneous race and sex assessment. Measurements from the preservationally favored central portion of the innominate were chosen for their potential usefulness in forensic casework and to objectify long-recognized "formal" differences between the sexes in the greater sciatic notch. These included acetabular diameter, greater sciatic notch height, and position of greatest notch depth. Accuracy of sex prediction when race is known is roughly 90% in both the base sample of 260 and a test sample of 200 (50 additional individuals for each group). For simultaneous race and sex assessment, accuracy of prediction is roughly 60% for each group in both samples. This represents about a 45% reduction in error over random assignment by race and sex.
对260名美国白人和黑人（每个种族65名男性和65名女性）的无名骨进行了特里收集分析，通过判别函数分析进行性别评估（已知种族）以及同时进行种族和性别评估。选择无名骨保存良好的中央部分进行测量，因为它们在法医案件工作中可能有用，并且可以客观化长期以来人们所认识到的男女在坐骨大切迹方面的“形态”差异。这些测量包括髋臼直径、坐骨大切迹高度以及切迹最深位置。在已知种族的情况下，在260人的基础样本和200人的测试样本（每组额外增加50人）中，性别预测的准确率在两个种族中都约为90%。对于同时进行种族和性别评估，在两个样本中每个组的预测准确率约为60%。这意味着与按种族和性别随机分配相比，误差减少了约45%。
