SUMMARY STATISTICS

The data is collected in three separated lab schedules from February 23, 24, and
March 3, 2022. The population measured is the students enrolled in IE 22 –
Ergonomics. There are 15 participants who attended the limited face-to-face
laboratory.

Chart 1.2 Summary of Age

The age of the population ranges from 21 to 22, shown above the clustered
illustration of ages. This should be taken into consideration the type of the population
and how recently data was collected.
The group obtained data from the other group and entered it into google forms and
be consolidated after in an excel spreadsheet. After compiling all the data, the next
step is to divide it into two groups: male and female, as shown below.

Table 1.2 Female Summary Statistics

The table above shows the summary statistics of the anthropometric measurement
of female students in class.

PERCENTILE HUMANS

Each population's anthropometric dimensions are ordered by size and expressed as

percentiles. Designing for the 5th percentile (5th%) female to the 95th percentile
(95th%) male is the usual practice. The smallest measurement for design in a
population is usually the 5th percent female value for a certain dimension (e.g.,
sitting height). A 95th percentile male figure, on the other hand, may signify the
greatest dimension for which one is planning. Approximately 90% of the population is
accommodated in the 5th to 95th percentiles.

The group must calculate the percentile (5th and 95th) for the entire class's
anthropometric data. The group readily computed the percentiles of the data using
 Microsoft Excel. The percentiles of each anthropometric measurement for the entire
section are listed below. It's worth noting that it's sorted by gender.

Table 2.1 Percentile of Anthropometry Measurements

Anthropometric data is essential for determining the average shape and size of
people who will use a product before applying designs or products to make them
more pleasant to use. Anthropometry is an ergonomics discipline that deals with
body size and shape. People come in a variety of sizes, therefore when a product or
work environment is developed for them, these differences must be taken into
account. In most cases, the anthropometric measures of the expected user are not
taken into account while designing a workstation in the industry. Unwanted
occurrences may occur if designs are incompatible with regular anthropometric
measurements of a workforce. Work done in a workplace that does not adhere to
ergonomics principles can result in weariness and pain, as well as injuries known as
musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs). An ergonomics approach to industrial workstation
design aims to strike the right balance between worker capabilities and task
requirements.
