Abstract

Background: CEPHALOMETRY is one of the active subjects in medicine and forensic medicine. One of the important indices in CEPHALOMETRY is skull CEPHALIC INDEX which forms the basis of the international standard categorization of the skull. Length and width of skull are its most important dimensions and it is through these dimensions that we can determine the CEPHALIC INDEX. Different factors such as age, race, economic and social status affect the skull index. Therefore, this research was done to determine the influence of the educational level and residential area on CEPHALIC INDEX in young males and female and females aged 20-24 years in Tehran during 2001-2002.Method: This descriptive research was performed by observation and interviewing. The individuals were chosen accidentally from five different areas in Tehran (North, South, Center, East, and West). 1862 youngsters (967 male, 895 female) in several educational levels (such as under diploma, diploma, over diploma) and 1822 youngsters (943 males and 879 females) residents of different areas in Tehran, were studied without considering their education level. The samples were sane without any musculoskeletal diseases. Data was analyzed with SPSS for windows software.Results: The mean and standard deviation of the CEPHALIC INDEX in males with under diploma, diploma, over diploma were: 81.5±6.4, 81.6±6.6, and 82.9±6.8 respectively In females they were: 78.9±5.7, 81±6.0 and 82±6.2 respectively. The mean and standard deviation of the CEPHALIC INDEX in male residents of the north, south, center, east, west of Tehran was: 82.7±6.2, 83.1±5.8, 81±6.0, 81.2±6.8, 82.0±6.1 respectively and it was 81.0±6, 81.8±5.8, 82.3±6.3, 81.5±5.9 and 83.2±5.8 in females. These indices in males and females, with different educational levels and residential areas, were compared with "student t. test" and p<0.05 was considered significant.Conclusion: CEPHALIC INDEX increases in line with education in both sexes. Mean CEPHALIC INDEX is greater in males than females in all educational levels. This index is significantly different in residents of different areas, but this observation needs additional studies due to the confounding effects of factors such as social and economic status.
