本文通过对63452例18~97岁的中国人体部12项指数值的统计分析,得出目前该年龄段中国人的体部形态特征。研究发现,中国人总体体型为长躯干型、中肩型、中骨盆型、中腿型。男性为中胸型,女性为宽胸型。随着年龄增长,上半身会显得更短一些,上半身与下半身比例更小一些,胸部更显宽厚一些,躯干下部显得更宽一些,腿显得更长一些。与南方族群相比,蒙古语族群、突厥语族群身体更壮实一些,胸部更显得宽厚一些,上身更高一些,上肢显得短一些,躯干的上部（肩部）相对窄一些,躯干的下部（骨盆）相对更宽一些,上肢长和下肢长度比例更小一些。研究还发现,同等身高的男性和女性相比,男性的上肢长度、下肢长度一般都小于女性,而女性比男性有一个更大的坐高值。从躯干长度来比较,女性确实比男性腿短一些。下身长相等的中国男性、女性之间相比,女性的坐高大于男性。同等身高情况下,中国人的坐高比欧亚人种、非洲人种的坐高要大,即有较高的上半身高度。

This paper is based on the statistical analysis of 12 indices of the human body of 63452 Chinese people aged from 18 to 97 years old, and the morphological characteristics of Chinese people at present were obtained. Studies have found that overall body type of Chinese people are generally long torso, mid-shoulder, mid-pelvic, and mid-leg type. Men have a mid-chest shape, and women have a wide-chested shape. As their age increase, the upper body of Chinese appears shorter, the ratio of upper body to lower body is smaller, the chest becomes wider, the lower part of torso appears wider, and the legs appear longer. Compared with the southern ethnic groups, the Mongolian and Turkic ethnic groups have a stronger body, a thicker chest, a taller upper body, shorter upper limbs, and a relatively narrower upper part of the torso (shoulder), and a wider lower part of torso (pelvis). The ratio of the length of the upper limbs to the length of the lower limbs is smaller. The study also found that compared with women of the same height, men’s upper limb length and lower limb length are generally smaller than women, and women have a greater sitting height value than men. Compared with the length of the torso, women do have shorter legs than men. Compared with Chinese men and women the same lower body length, the sitting height of women is larger than that of men. In the case of the same height, the sitting height of the Chinese is larger than that of the Eurasian and African races. That is, they have a higher upper body height.
