 The purpose of this study was to examine reliability and validity of a Ring gauge and Metacarpal head tape measure methods of determining hand size. The study sample included 40 normal consenting volunteers. Two examiners measured each hand of each subject two times. In the second experiment, concurrent validity of the method of fitting the Ring gauge and Metacarpal head tape measure method were examined using Figure-of-eight method as the measure criterion. The intraclass correlation coefficients for intra-and interater reliability obtained were 0.99 and 0.98 of the Ring gauge method and Metacarpal head tape measure method. Pearson product-moment correlation values between the Ring gauge method and the Figure-of-eight method were 0.76 to 0.84. The Metacarpal head tape measure method and the Figure-of-eight method were 0.91 to 0.94. The Ring gauge method and Metacarpal head tape measure method demonstrated excellent reliability and concurrent validity compared with the Figure-of-eight method. These results support the application of the Ring gauge method and Metacarpal head tape measure method as a reliable and valid evaluation tool for the assessment of hand size.
