Abstract The balance laws for micromorphic continua of degree 1 are derived by means of classical statistical mechanics. The equations derived by Eringenet al. [Continuum Physics, Vol. IV (Academic, New York, 1976)] are obtained in a slightly generalized form. Explicit expressions for the stress, the couple stress, the spin production, and the heat flux are given in terms of microscopical variables.
