METHODOLOGY

The subject was asked to sit on a chair.
He was then asked to stretch out his forearm fully.
Following that, his forearm was ensured to be placed flat on the table.
Then a measuring tape was used to measure the length of the forearm, i.e. from the wrist to the mid elbow.

The subject was asked to stand with back against the wall.
The back of the foot was ensured to be against the wall.
The measuring tape was placed on the floor next to the foot on the lateral side.
The foot was measured from the heel to the longest toe.
A ruler was placed at the tip of the longest toe (big toe for most) to ensure that the measurement was taken correctly. Hence eliminating parallax error.

This is the survey form that we helped the participants to fill in their datas.

A sample of 30 people were surveyed. Several details were taken into consideration. They included the gender, age, length of left foot (centimetres) and lenght of left forearm (centimetres).For the length of the foot, the person's foot was measured from the tip of the longest toe to the edge of the foot. As for the length of the forearm, the measurement was taken from the wrist to the middle of the elbow, in the middle of the cubital fossa.A measuring tape was used to measure the readings.Only one measurement was taken for each individual.No rejection was done.
