AB - 1. PURPOSE This research is a study on constitutional diagnosis through the external appearances, and for finding shape differences of the hand and foot according to the Sasang Constitution.
2. Method We collected 148 person who were healthy and measured length, breadth, circumference and thickness of their hands and feet with 'The Measurement of R. Martin'.
We analyzed shape differences of hand and foot according to the Sasang Constitution and made a certain conclusion.
3. Results and Conclusions We got the morphologic characteristics of hand and foot according to the Sasang Constitution.
(1) The physical characteristics.
The weight is heaviest in Taeumin.
(2) The morphologic characteristics of Hand.
① The wrist circumference is longest in Taeumin.
② The finger length / hand length(ratio) is higher Soeumin than Taeumin.
③ The wrist breadth is largest in Taeumin(only male).
④ The wrist breadth is larger Taeumin than Soeumin(only female).
⑤ The palm length is longer Taeumin than Soyangin(only male).
⑥ The maximum hand breadth is larger Taeumin than Soeumi (only male).
⑦ The 2nd, 3rd and 4th finger length is longer Soeumin than Soyangin(only male).
(3) The morphologic characteristics of Foot.
① The foot thickness is thickest in Taeumin.
② The foot breadth is largest in Taeumin.
③ The ankle circumference is longest in Taeumin(only male).
