被服構成學的 人體計測과 集落構造分析 (Ⅰ) = Anthropometry for clothing construction and cluster an alysis (Ⅰ)

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

The purpose of this study was to analyze "the natural groupings" of subjects in order to classify highly similar somatotype for clothing construction. The sample for the study was drawn randomly out of senior high school boys in Seoul urban area. The sample size was 425 boys between age 16 and 18. Cluster analysis was more concerned with finding the hierarchical structure of subjects by three dimensional distance of stature, bust girth and sleeve length. The groups forming a partition can be subdivided into 5 and 6 sets by the hierarchical tree of the given subjects. Ward's Minimum Variance Method was applied after extraction of distance matrix by the Standardized Euclidean Distance. All of the above data was analyzed by the computer installed at Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology. The major findings,take for instance, of 16 age group can be summarized as follows.
The results of cluster analysis of this study:
1. Cluster 1 (32 persons means 18.29% of the total) is characterized with smaller bust girth than that of cluster 5, but stature and sleeve length of the cluster 1 are the largest group.
2. Cluster 2 (18 persons means 10.29% of the total) is characterized with the group of the smallest stature and sleeve length, but bust girth larger than that of cluster 3.
3. Cluster 3(35persons means 20% of the total) is classified with the smallest group of all the stature, bust girth and sleeve length.
4. Cluster 4(60 persons means 34.29% of the total) is grouped with the same value of sleeve length with the mean value of 16 age group, but the stature and bust girth is smaller than the mean value of this age group.
5. Cluster 5(30 persons means 17.14% of the total) is characterized with smaller stature than that of cluster 1, and with larger bust girth than that of cluster 1, but with the same value of the sleeve length with the mean value of the 16 age group.
