Morphometric variables on the human petrous portion of the temporal bone can provide identification of sex in fragmented skeletal remains. The petrous frequently survives circumstances that cause skeletal fragmentation. Using discriminant function analysis of seven combinations of five variables, up to 74% accuracy can be obtained in determining sex from the petrous portion.
颞骨岩部的形态测量变量可为碎片化骨骼遗骸的性别鉴定提供依据。岩部在导致骨骼碎片化的情况下常常能够留存下来。通过对五个变量的七种组合进行判别函数分析，利用岩部来确定性别的准确率可达74%。
