다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

"Adolescence" is a critical period in the process of growing and aging but important in that an adolescent becomes aware of and begins to look about him or her self. Especially with girls in their late teens (1518), they pay more attention to their looks and clothes than the boys do, which affects to some extent the formation of their personality and their behavior. From this point of view, it is significant to establish the standard size of high-school girls' clothes.
This study aims to measure high-school girls in size and to establish the standard size of their clothes; furthermore, to enable them to lead a satisfactory living with more appropriate size of .clothes.
The results, analyzed by two different representing items which resulted in little difference, are as belows:
1) Stature had a significant correlation with posterior waist height; bust girth had the most significant correlation with weight, and also some considerable correlation with other representing items;
2) The F-test result showed significant difference on 1% level over all the items between the measured (Y) and the estimated (Y ); the correlation among the representing items was considerable also;
3) When the measurement increases in stature by 4cm, bust girth by 4cm, and posterior shoulder width by 2cm respectively, the increase or decrease in other items are as shown on Table 4.
Since this study was carried out in girls' high-schools in Seoul, it is expected to extend its further study throughout the nation, thus contributing to comprehending the whole truth of people's body-size and promoting the fabrication and modelling of the original clothes for the nation by the strict standard size up to making ready-made clothes with no difficulty in setting the standard and model size.
