Head Measurements Gender Total
Male n = 28 Female n = 57 Both sexes n =85
Mean (95% Confidence Interval) Mean (95% Confidence Interval) Mean (95% Confidence Interval)
g_op 18.18 (178.09, 182.69) 175.5 (173.59, 177.72) 177.6 (175.57, 178.82)

CI (%) 85.9 (84.55, 87.33) 86.6 (85.38, 87.84) 86.4 (85.46, 87.32)

g_op = Maximum skull length

eu_eu = Maximum skull breadth (Bieryuonic diameter)

zy_zy = Maximum face width (Bizygomatic diameter)

CI = Cephalic Index = (eu_eu/g_op)* 100

All measurements except CI are significantly different between males and females at p< 0.005 level (independent t-test)
