Abstract des Autors
An exploratory factor analysis was conducted on 23 anthropometric variables measured on 309 male and 148 female athletes who competed in the 1976 Montreal Olympics. A three-factor orthogonal structure was found to describe both groups, with only small differences being found between them. The need for new approaches in applying factor analysis methods was discussed. Verf.-Referat
