According to different studies - especially geometric ones - different factors have"nbeen proposed that can affect horizontal dimension parameters. The aim of this study is claimed"non the title. The study is of a descriptive and cross- sectional type."nFourteen lateral cephalogerams were selected to the sample consisted of 21 boys and 19 girls"nwith the mean age of 9.83 years who suffered from different skeletal & dental malocclusion and"nwere selected by simple sampling method."nThe linear parameters of wit's and wylie (which depend on occlusal & FH planes), the harvold"nparameter (which is independent of reference planes) & the proportional parameter of Schwartz"nwere selected & their correlation with angular parameter of ANB were evaluated."nThe results showed:"n"- All of the horizontal analyses showed statistically significant correlation."n2- The ANB parameter showed high correlation with wit's, wylie, harvold & shawartz analyses"nand the correlation between ANB & wit's was higher than others.
