PIMIENTA MERLIN, Martha y GALLARDO VELAZQUEZ, Alfonso. Diferencias sexuales en el húmero: sugerencias para la determinación del sexo en restos óseos. Península [online]. 2005, vol.1, n.0, pp.243-257. ISSN 1870-5766.
This study is a metric-morphological discriminant analysis of the humerus; its purpose is to know the existance of sexual differences. The sample comprised 87 individuals from the contemporary skeletal collection of the physical anthropology laboratory of the Anatomy Department housed at the Medical School of the Autonomous National University of Mexico. The results allowed to establish 78 discriminant functions to determine sex, with variables that had from 80.0% to 95.2% of correct classification.
