Surface area of 201 Japanese (both sexes) from infancy to old age selected statistically according to sex, age and body shape were measured and the regional rates calculated and discussed.The results are as follows:1. There was no difference between either side of the body for any age or sex.2. The rate of head, face and neck decreased while that of the lower extremities increased with aging.3. After adolescence regional rates could be differentiated between the sexes. The rates of the thigh of the female were considerably higher than that of the male.4. Body shape, rate of the head, face and neck the tendency waslowest toward obesity and highest toward slenderness. The rates of the limbs, upper and lower extremities revealed the opposite tendency to the former.5. These results vary little as compared to other studies done on Japanese. However, compared to a German oran American revealed a higher rate for limbs. The rate was definitely lower for the Westerner.6. Judging statistically the sublects and methods in this study, the regional rates of body surface described in this paper according to sex, age and body shape are acceptable to be used asastandand for the Japanese people for the study and review of all physical parts.

Various calculation formulas of body surface area are designed by the measured values of body surface area and other physical measurements, e.g. height, weight, chest circumference etc, of 201 Japanese of both sexes from neonatal to old age.<br>Statistically comparing the formulas, the following three may be used for all ages of Japanese with the slightest possibility of error.<br>1. Newborn (under 1 year) <i>S</i>=W^0.473×H^0.655×95.68<br>2. Young child (1-5 years) <i>S</i>=W^0.423×H^0.362×381.89<br>3. Over 6 years to old age (for general use) <i>S</i>=W^0.444×H^0.663×88.83<br>(<i>S</i>: Surface area in cm², W: Body weight in kg, H: Height in cm)
