abstract="<p><br/>This study was made to verify Kretschmer's generalization that certain types of physique were related to certain types of mental diseases. Over 1200 patients were examined, both for weight and height. In four out of six comparisons, the curves of the manics and the praecoxes were practically the same. The curve for weight in pounds showed that the male manics were on the average 10 pounds heavier than the male praecoxes. The curve for pounds per inch of height showed that the mode weighed .10 pound more per inch for the male manic, than for the male praecox; Kretschmer's difference was .30 pound per inch.
