Implication

Observational analysis reveals weak correlations between stature and cephalic or nasal metrics among Jordanians, suggesting limitations in prediction.

Key Points

Stature estimates based on cephalic and nasal metrics had weak correlations, with the highest being 0.534 for nasal height.
The multiple linear regression model explained 34.9% of stature variance, but only two nasal dimensions significantly contributed.
Principal component analysis reduced metrics to two components, with the resulting model demonstrating a lower R square of 32.8%.
The models indicate a need to combine cephalic and nasal metrics with other stature proxies for more accurate predictions.
