title: [Relations between anthropometric and psychodynamic indexes in georgian women of normal physical development].
abstract: The goal of the study was to determine what correlations exist between anthropometric and psychodynamic indexes among various constitutional types of Georgian women (20-55 years of age). For this reason we have investigated 175 women. For the study of temperament and character we have used questionnaire by Aizenk and temperament scale by Sheldon. Determination of mood types and intellect was also conducted. We have found that correlation among subspecies of temperament and anthropometrical signs among women is increasing with the age or remains the same and is in the limits of 0,3-0,4; as for the relations between character forms and anthropometrical signs they also increase with age, (0,4-0,5) also correlations are growing among anthropometrical results and various types of intellect in 0,5-0,6 limits. Relations with the mood types increase as well in 0,3-0,4 limits. It was shown that Georgian women in young age with dolichomorphic figure, extraverts, sanguine by temperament, with distinctly expressed middle logic intellect, according to the type plastic- dynamic, constant -- stabile, with middle excitability; i.e. are harmonic-dynamic constitutional types. Women in higher age with brachymorphic figure, introverts, basically phlegmatic, with middle logic and verbal intellect; according to the type constant -- stabile, strongly dynamic, with middle excitability, express self control, high level of mental activity; they are conflict-static constitutional types.
