Abstract

Height or stature is one of the four main parameters used to identify individuals, along with sex, age, and ethnicity. In cases where a body has been fragmented or dismembered, estimating a person’s height by measuring long bones can help determine his identity. Research on the relationship between height and upper arm or leg length has not been widely conducted in East Jakarta, thus important to gather primary data on this topic within this community. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the relationship between height and upper arm length, foot length, and foot width in a sample of 124 individuals from the East Jakarta region, using a descriptive analytic research method. The results of the study indicate a strong correlation between height and the length of the right upper arm (0.930) and left upper arm (0.932), the length of the right foot (0.893) and left foot (0.897), and the width of the right foot (0.743) and left foot (0.750). These findings suggest that there is a significant association between height and upper arm length, foot length, and foot width.
