New H I synthesis data have been obtained for six face-on galaxies with the
Very Large Array. These data and reanalyses of three additional data sets
make up a sample of nine face-on galaxies analyzed for deviations from axis
ymmetry in morphology and dynamics. This sample represents a subsample of g
alaxies already analyzed for morphological symmetry properties in the R ban
d. Four quantitative measures of dynamical nonaxisymmetry are compared with
one another and to the quantitative measures of morphological asymmetry in
H I and the R band to investigate the relationships between nonaxisymmetri
c morphology and dynamics. We find no significant relationship between asym
metric morphology and most of the dynamical measures in our sample. A possi
ble relationship is found, however, between morphology and dynamical positi
on angle differences between approaching and receding sides of the galaxy.
