Gender-Specific Biases in Age Estimation Methods: A Comparative Analysis of Chaillet and Morris Methods in Forensic Anthropology
This study underscores the importance of considering gender-specific biases and variations in age estimation methods. Although the Chaillet and Morris methods may not show significant gender disparities in estimates, they consistently underestimate actual ages, with females having higher actual ages on average. These findings highlight the need for continued refinement and validation of age estimation techniques to ensure accuracy and fairness across diverse populations.
