The first two data columns (Correction values for new age point) list Behrents' average dimensional change values for orthodontically untreated females, in relation to the parameters listed in the left (Measurement) column. These data were used to produce the absolute value changes for the subject skull, as listed in the two right-hand columns (Change in absolute values for new age point).
