Includes bibliographical references (pages 47-50)This study attempted to ascertain the factor structure underlying five spirometric measures (forced vital capacity, forced expiratory volume, forced expiratory\ud volume percent, maximum voluntary ventilation, and forced mid-expiratory flow), three physical characteristics (age, height, and body surface area), smoking duration and smoking amount. Spirometric tracings were made on a Collins Respirometer for 858 healthy male and female smokers and nonsmokers employed by the Prudential Life Insurance Company. Prior to inclusion in this study, each subject was given a complete physical examination to insure that all were free from any clinical evidence of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Fr...
