A procedure is developed and presented for the calculation of sex dimorphism in quantitative variates. Instead of expressing sex dimorphism by the male X/female X ratio, it deletes the area of overlap of the two curves and provides the proportion of males and females in terms of the areas under each curve. Examination of anthropometric variates among Eskimos from northwestern Alaska and the Hadza from Tanzania indicates that extremity measurements might be of special value for assessing the magnitude of sex dimorphism.
本文开发并提出了一种用于计算定量变量中性别二态性的方法。该方法不是用男性X/女性X比值来表示性别二态性，而是去除两条曲线的重叠区域，并根据每条曲线下的面积给出男性和女性的比例。对阿拉斯加西北部爱斯基摩人和坦桑尼亚哈扎人的人体测量变量进行研究表明，四肢测量对于评估性别二态性的程度可能具有特殊价值。
