[Variations in body height in 18-year-old males in Austria].
By means of the conscription data of the Austrian Army the variability of the height of 18 years old men from the age-classes 1962 and 1964, who come from three different Austrian provinces (Vienna, Niederösterreich and Burgenland) was analysed. In spite of the extensive data material it was nearly impossible to establish a causal interpretation beyond a pure description, because too many external additional informations are lacking. In all the three provinces a definite trend of acceleration was ascertained. Known social-anthropological facts could as well be confirmed, like the dependency of the height from school education in all the three provinces.
