“…Proximal and distal breadth measurements (i.e., FDB, TPB, HDB, HPB and TDB) were consistently recognized as important measurements in model creation. Similar measurements produce the highest classification accuracies in adult sex estimation (Krüger et al, ; Spradley & Jantz, ). While previous research did not find any significant differences in midshaft cross‐sectional area of prepubertal boys and girls matched for age, height, and weight, midshaft breadths were still retained in model creation, even though their overall contribution to models is generally lower than the distal or proximal breadths (Gilsanz et al, ; Nieves et al, ; Schoenau, Neu, Beck, Manz, & Rauch, ).…”
