Abstract : An anthropometric survey measuring 24 hand dimensions was conducted in 202 Indonesian young adult females. The samples consisted of three different ethnic groups in Indonesia, including Bataknese, Javanese, and Sundanese. The results of the measurements were presented using means, standard deviations, and percentile values which were summarized in tables. Comparisons of the collected data among ethnic groups were performed. Also, comparisons between the collected data and other nationalities such as Jordanian, Bangladeshis, Vietnamese, Hong Kong Chinese, Nigerian, and UK Resident were performed. The results showed many significant differences among ethnic groups. The Sundanese tended to have narrower and thinner hands than the Bataknese and Javanese. Also, many differences on hand dimensions existed among the Indonesian young adult females and other nationalities. However, a general conclusion on the differences was difficult to be reached. The results of this study should be considered in the design or selection of the hand-operated products that are used by Indonesian young adult females.
