Comparison Of Percent Body Fat And BMI In Tracking Of Body Composition Among Adolescents

Comparison Of Percent Body Fat And BMI In Tracking Of Body Composition Among Adolescents

To examine the extent to which differences may exist between percent body fat (%BF, converted from triceps and calf skinfolds) and BMI in tracking of adolescents' body composition. BMI and %BF (from the two-site skinfold) were assessed for 102 boys (mean age = 11.6 + or - .58) and 112 girls (me...

description To examine the extent to which differences may exist between percent body fat (%BF, converted from triceps and calf skinfolds) and BMI in tracking of adolescents' body composition. BMI and %BF (from the two-site skinfold) were assessed for 102 boys (mean age = 11.6 + or - .58) and 112 girls (mean age = 11.47 + or - .51) at the beginning of their 6 super(th) grade (baseline), the end of the 6 super(th) grade (follow-up 1), the end of the 7 super(th) grade (follow-up 2), and the end of the 8 super(th) grade (follow-up 3). Spearman rank correlations for BMI between baseline and each of the three follow-ups were .96, .88, and .88 for boys and .97, .94, and .89 for girls, with little difference between sexes.
