title: [Growth relations of the Japanese].
abstract: Based on data of Japanese body height and weight values published by Altman and Dittmer (1962) and compiled by Arimoto (1960) mathematical investigations into the relationship between height and age as well as log weight and height are carried out using formulas of the author already applied to measurements from the German Federal Republic and the United States of America. The main parameters show a considerable difference for the Japanese as was to be expected. Graphs give the curves for growth, increase and acceleration, supplemented by the log weight/height relation.
