“…The findings show the similarities between the hand types identified by Vergara et al (2019) 32 and the finger length types in our study, although there are noticeable differences in the frequencies of each type. PS1-HS1, PS2-HS2, and PS3-HS3 types account for 19.4%, 22.3%, and 11.5% of the total participants, respectively.…”

“…This observation has been supported by previous studies. For instance, Vergara et al 32 conducted an analysis of the variability in the lengths of metacarpals and fingers, proposing nine combinations of three palm shapes (PS) and three hand shapes (HS). Among these combinations, the PS1-HS1 type, characterized by a thumb-index predominant pattern, shows similarities to the Downhill type in our study.…”

“…From human factors and ergonomics (HFE) standpoint, hand anthropometry is beneficial for determining various design parameters for items that protect the hands (e.g., gloves), products that are controlled with the hands (e.g., remote control, mouse), and tools that are operated with the hands (e.g., screwdriver, hammer) (Lee & Jung, 2015; Vergara et al, 2018). Vergara et al, for example, reported on the hand anthropometry of the Mediterranean population for glove sizing (Vergara et al, 2019). Shahira et al also measured the hand dimensions of Bangladeshi agricultural farm workers, which will be used to design agricultural hand tools, machinery, and equipment (Shahriar et al, 2020).…”

“…Several applications of anthropometry are reflected in a variety of reports and applications such as school furniture (Castellucci et al, 2016;Castellucci et al, 2014, Castellucci et al, 2015aMokdad and Al-Ansari, 2009), agricultural tools (Dewangan et al, 2010;Syuaib, 2015bSyuaib, , 2015a, car assembly (Castellone et al, 2017), personal protective equipment (Choi et al, 2009;Coblentz et al, 1991;Hsiao, 2013;Laing et al, 1999;K. M. Robinette and Branch, 2008;Stirling, 2005;Vergara et al, 2019), public transport seats (Molenbroek et al, 2017;Porta et al, 2019), domestic settings (Dawal et al, 2015) and even space shuttles and suits (NASA, 1978).…”
