Outline of Final Research Achievements

The Fujimmon growth curves have been proposed as standardization of a new human growth system. Analysis of the changes in human body proportions with this may be considered significant. Therefore, the theory proposed by Scammon was first examined in order to investigate a standardization of the human growth system, construct a new growth curve model as a standard growth pattern for humans. As the results, that the velocity curves in general type visceral growth and genital type testicular growth can be shown to be very similar is something that seems to have been demonstrated for the first time by Fujii (2016). This proposal for the Fujimmon growth curves as a standardization of the human growth system may make it possible to verify the changes in human proportions formed from three patterns, a neural type, lymphoid type, and general type. Fujimmon’s and Scammon’s growth curves are compared on the same scale for easy understanding of the differences in the model patterns.
