Abstract:
Easy-to-apply and quick methods for evaluate body composition are often preferred when assessing soccer teams. This study aimed to develop new equations for the somatotype quantification that would reduce the anthropometric measurements required by the Heath and Carter method, integrating the somatotype assessment to the bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA). One hundred and seventy-six male elite soccer players (age 26.9 ± 4.5 years), registered in the Italian first division (Serie A), underwent anthropometric measurements and BIA. Endomorphy, mesomorphy, and ectomorphy were obtained according to the Heath and Carter method, while fat mass (FM) and fat free mass (FFM) estimated using a BIA-derived equation specific for athletes. The participants were randomly split into development (n = 117) and validation groups (n = 59, 1/3 of sample). The developed models including resistance2/stature, FM%, FFM, contracted arm and calf circumference, triceps, and supraspinal skinfolds had high predictive ability for endomorphy (R2 = 0.83, Standard Error of Estimate (SEE) = 0.16) mesomorphy (R2 = 0.80, SEE = 0.36), and ectomorphy (endomorphy (R2 = 0.87, SEE = 0.22). Cross validation revealed R2 of 0.80, 0.84, 0.87 for endomorphy, mesomorphy, and ectomorphy, respectively. The proposed strategy allows the integration of somatotype assessment to BIA in soccer players, reducing the number of instruments and measurements required by the Heath and Carter approach.

Abstract:
Somatotype characteristics are important for the selection of sporting activities, as well as and the prevalence of several chronic diseases. Nowadays the most common method of somatotyping is the Heath–Carter method, which calculates the somatotype base on 10 anthropometric parameters. Another possibility for evaluation of somatotype gives commonly used bioelectrical impedance analysis), but the accuracy of the proposed formulas is questioned. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the possibility of applying an artificial neural network to achieve the formulas, which allow us to determine the endomorphy and mesomorphy using data on body height and weight and raw bioelectrical impedance analysis data in young women. The endomorphy (Endo), ectomorphy (Ecto), and mesomorphy (Meso) ratings were determined using artificial neural networks and the Heath–Carter method. To identify critical parameters and their degree of impact on the artificial neural network outputs, a sensitivity analysis was performed. The multi-layer perceptron MLP 4-4-1 (input: body mass index (BMI), reactance, resistance, and resting metabolic rate) for the Endo somatotype was proposed (root mean squared error (RMSE) = 0.66, χ2 = 0.66). The MLP 4-4-1 (input: BMI, fat-free mass, resistance, and total body water) for the Meso somatotype was proposed (RMSE = 0.76, χ2 = 0.87). All somatotypes (Endo, Meso and Ecto) can be calculated using MLP 2-4-3 (input: BMI and resistance) with accuracy RMSE = 0.67 and χ2 = 0.51. The bioelectrical impedance analysis and Heath–Carter method compliance was evaluated with the statistical algorithm proposed by Bland and Altman. The artificial neural network-based formulas allow us to determine the endomorphy and mesomorphy in young women’s ratings with high accuracy and agreement with the Heath–Carter method. The results of our study indicate the successful application of artificial neural network-based model in predicting the somatotype of young women. The artificial neural network model can be practically used in bioelectrical impedance analysis devices in the future.

Abstract:
Personality and somatotype studies of pilots have mostly been restricted to military pilots and experienced airline crews. In this investigation the 16 PF and Heath-Carter somatotype method were utilized to study 31 male aviation majors, aged between 18 and 38 yr., who had earned their Private Pilots' Licenses and were working toward more advanced ratings. The pilots varied significantly from the male college student norm on Factors E, F, G, H, and Q3 of the 16 PF. They were also significantly less ectomorphic.

Abstract:
To study the relation between body build and the Type A behavior pattern, 194 college students were given the Jenkins Activity Survey as a measure of Type A behavior, Factor S (speed and impatience), and Factor H (hard driving and competitive) and the Heath-Carter somatotype method to measure body build. Subjects were grouped as endomorphs, mesomorphs, ectomorphs, or balanced. Two-way analyses of variance showed that, on raw and percentile Type A scores for Factor S, mesomorphs rated significantly higher than the other body builds and nonsignificantly on Type A and Factor H scores.

Abstract:
The accurate body composition assessment comprises several variables, causing it to be a time consuming evaluation as well as requiring different and sometimes costly measurement instruments. The aim of this study was to develop new equations for the somatotype prediction, reducing the number of normal measurements required by the Heath and Carter approach. A group of 173 male soccer players (age, 13.6 ± 2.2 years, mean ± standard deviation; body mass index, BMI, 19.9 ± 2.5 kg/m2), members of the academy of a professional Italian soccer team participating in the first division (Serie A), participated in this study. Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) was performed using the single frequency of 50 kHz and fat-free mass (FFM) was calculated using a BIA specific, impedance based equation. Somatotype components were estimated according to the Heath-Carter method. The participants were randomly split into development (n = 117) and validation groups (n = 56). New anthropometric and BIA based models were developed (endomorphy = −1.953 − 0.011 × stature2/resistance + 0.135 × BMI + 0.232 × triceps skinfold, R2 = 0.86, SEE = 0.28; mesomorphy = 6.848 + 0.138 × phase angle + 0.232 × contracted arm circumference + 0.166 × calf circumference − 0.093 × stature, R2 = 0.87, SEE = 0.40; ectomorphy = −5.592 − 38.237 × FFM/stature + 0.123 × stature, R2 = 0.86, SEE = 0.37). Cross validation revealed R2 of 0.84, 0.80, and 0.87 for endomorphy, mesomorphy, and ectomorphy, respectively. The new proposed equations allow for the integration of the somatotype assessment into BIA, reducing the number of collected measurements, the instruments used, and the time normally required to obtain a complete body composition analysis.

O objetivo desse presente estudo foi analisar a somatotipia de atletas de voleibol da Seleção Paraibana Infanto-juvenil. A amostra (n=23) foi composta por atletas da seleção paraibana de voleibol masculina (16,8 ± 0,40) e do feminino (15,5 ± 0,67 ). O método utilizado na avaliação do somatotipo foi o de Heath e Carter (1990). Os resultados do estudo apresentaram os seguintes valores de endomorfia, mesomorfia e ectomorfia (4,6-2,9-3,7) para a seleção masculina e (5,3-2,6-2,6) para o feminino. As características antropometricas e do somatotipo neste estudo foram elevados níveis no componente endomorfia, o que pode representar níveis elevados de gordura corporal, consequentemente pode significar níveis não adequados para as caracteristicas morfologicas para o voleibol.

Abstract:
ANTECEDENTES: Dentro de la práctica deportiva existen diferentes aspectos que son esenciales para lograr que los atletas optimicen su rendimiento deportivo. Por lo que es de gran importancia el uso de diversos métodos y técnicas que faciliten la obtención de resultados y así poder brindarle al atleta mejoras en su composición corporal. Los deportes son muy diferentes entre si, como también los factores que los limitan en función de los mismos y de las diferentes especialidades. En la mayoría de los deportes se han adoptado estándares de peso diseñados para asegurar que los deportistas obtengan un óptimo rendimiento; utilizando herramientas como el somatotipo se puede obtener análisis de tipo cuantitativo del físico, expresándose en una calificación de tres números, el componente endomórfico, mesomórfico y ectomórfico, respectivamente. OBJETIVO: Identificar el somatotipo de los integrantes de los equipos representativos de la Unidad Deportiva de la Universidad Autónoma del Estado de México. MATERIAL Y MÉTODO: Durante el periodo de Agosto del 2011 a Julio del 2012 se realizó un estudio de tipo retrospectivo, observacional, descriptivo, transversal, donde se recolectaron los datos antropométricos de 131 atletas para la elaboración de somatocartas. Se utilizó una cédula de información para la recolección de datos, posteriormente se realizó el análisis de los mismos para obtener medidas de tendencia central y elaborar los gráficos correspondientes a través de Excel. RESULTADOS: 131 atletas divididos en 11 distintas disciplinas deportivas. CONCLUSIONES: Los deportes son muy diferentes entre sí; al igual que los puestos de juego que se desempeñan en cada disciplina, por lo que es necesario individualizarlo ya que existen patrones característicos de somatotipo por género para cada deporte. Es importante mencionar que en los deportes femeninos estudiados las atletas presentaron en su topología un predominio del tejido adiposo y menor desarrollo músculo esquelético. En México aún no sé cuentan con tablas de somatotipo, que puedan sugerir el tipo de cuerpo necesario para cada disciplina deportiva, por lo que considero necesario que para el fortalecimiento del deporte mexicano es fundamental crea un mecanismo que nos permita llevar un control adecuado del tipo corporal por disciplina, género y posición de juego.

Abstract:
SOMATIC CHARACTERISTICS OF FEMALE FIGURE SKATERS IN THE CZECH REPUBLIC Objectives: The aim of the thesis is to find out specific somatic characteristics and somatotypes of female figure skaters in the Czech Republic. Subsequently relationships between measured somatic characteristics and normative of general population, and relationships between actual data and previous studies of female figure skaters are being examined. Methods: We use somatometric measurements to determine selected somatic characteristics (weight, height, eg.). We use the Heath-Carter method of somatotyping. Results: Female figure skaters are smaller than general population of the same age. In terms of physical height, one half of figure skaters is above population average while second half is under the average of population. Female figure skaters in this study are taller and heavier than figure skaters in previous study (Šelingerová, 1988) and they are more endomorphic. Prevailing somatotype is mesomorphic endomorph.

Title: Somatotype Comparison in Short Distance and Long Distance Triathlon Objectives: The goal is to determine the somatotype of triathletes competing in half ironman distance triathlons with triathletes competing in short distance triathlons. Methods: The Heath and Carter method was used for measuring the anthropometric parameters. The gained data were used in specific equations to calculate each of the three somatotype compoments. The anthropometric measurements involved participants of the Czechman Tour races. Results: By gaining appropriate anthropometric data, the average somatotype of triathletes competing in half distance events (2,1 - 4,4 - 2,9) falls into the category of ectomorphic mesomorph, whereas the somatotype of competitors in short distance events (2,1 - 4,4 - 2,9) falls into the category of mesomorphic ectomorphs.

Abstract:
This collection of targeted essays by an international team of leading scholars extends the previous four volumes of the Oxford History of Protestant Dissenting Traditions series into the twentieth century, following the spatial, cultural, and intellectual changes in dissenting identity and practice as these once European traditions globalized and settled down in other places. The migration of these traditions across cultural and national boundaries asked the key question, ‘Dissenting … from what?’ Whereas in Europe dissent was against the often religious state, (D)issent in a globalizing world could redefine itself against colonialism, against other secular and religious monopolies, or even against its own success. Traditions shifted along new continua—more or less indigenized, more or less experiential, more or less mobile and ‘productive’. The authors of this volume trace the encounters of dissenting Protestant traditions with modernity and globalization (Brown), changing imperial politics (Heath), challenges to biblical, denominational, and pastoral authority (Hutchinson), local cultures and languages (Yeo, Carter, Lord), and some of the century’s major themes, such as race and gender (Rademaker), new technologies (Asamoah-Gyadu), and organizational change (Ensign-George). In so doing they point to a vast array of local and globalizing illustrations which will enliven conversations about the role of religion, and in particular Christianity, be these in the classroom, the congregation, or the coffee shop. The volume draws on expertise from scholars located in many of the century’s points of intense change, from a range of national, cultural, and disciplinary backgrounds.
