Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to validate the self-reported body height and weight of adult Japanese women. The subjects were women, aged 20–42 years, who participated in a survey on eating disorders in women in 1995. Physically measured height and weight data were obtained for 368 (89·8%) of the 469 women who self-reported their height and weight. The report-based heights and weights were compared with the measured values. The correlation coefficients for height and weight were 0·990 and 0·963 (p<0·0001), respectively. Mean reported height was 0·1 cm shorter and mean reported weight 0·2 kg

Abstract:
This study compared differences between self-reported and measured height and weight and subsequent Body Mass Index. College students ( N = 62) were asked to complete a health questionnaire as accurately as possible. Height and weight were self-reported without the knowledge that these variables would be subsequently measured. Self-reported and measured heights, weights, and calculated Body Mass Indexes were statistically compared. Analysis indicated that measured height was significantly less than self-reported height for men, but weight was not significantly different. Calculated Body Mass I

This study was conducted to analyze milk production and morphometrics derived from digital images of Friesian and Holstein cows in smallholder farms located in Pondok Rangon, Lembang, and Cibungbulang Bogor in different lactation periods. The morphometric parameters measured in this study included body length, height, chest girth, and body weight. The findings indicated that Holstein cows exhibited greater body length, height, chest girth, and body weight compared to Friesian cows across all farms. Milk production in Friesian cows remained relatively stable from lactation periods one to three.

Heart weights, body weights and heights showed a normal distribution for both genders.

Classification of human weight can be determined by body mass index. The body mass index can be calculated by dividing the height by the square of the body weight.

The camera is used to capture the image of the human body. Then the image is processed by using digital image processing and by using certain algorithms, so it may conclude the person's ideal weight category. The data used in this study are huma

Body weight of an individual refers to total body mass and is also important indicator of health status of people. Body mass index (BMI) is a key index for relating weight to height. It is defined as the body mass divided by the square of the body height, The BMI is an attempt to quantify the amount of body tissue mass in an individual, and then categorize that the person as underweight, normal weight, overweight or obese.

Abstract:
College students' intuitive judgments about covariations between height, weight, and body fat were assessed in three experiments using responses to a series of prepositional statements as the dependent variable. In Exp. 1, judgments were rendered without explicit exposure to a prior database. In Exps. 2 and 3, however, databases were studied prior to these judgments. Remarkable consistencies in judgments of weight and body fat height and weight as well as of height and body fat were obtained across experiments At best, there was little evidence that the databases influenced the judged covariat

Height, weight, and skinfold measurements were obtained on a cohort of 447 children from birth (weight) or 6 months of age (height and skinfold) and monitored yearly thereafter until 7 years of age. At age 7 years, 250 remained for follow-up screening. A significant degree of tracking was found for all variables from age 1 to age 7 years. Height and weight tracked most strongly (age 1- to 7-year correlations = .42 and .44, respectively), whereas skinfold tracked somewhat lower (.28). Earlier levels of each anthropometric variable were the best predictor of later levels of that parameter. Impli

Abstract:
A person's Body Mass Index (BMI) can be determined using the parameters of body weight and height. In manual measurements, to determine BMI, measurements of body weight and height must be carried out and then the BMI results are calculated, so it is felt that it still requires effort and is less effective. Then a tool is made to determine BMI using the Fuzzy Logic method by measuring body weight and height in one step. This Fuzzy Logic method is used to determine the membership status of weight and height. Fuzzy set of weight and height that has been adjusted to the threshold in Indonesia, inc

Body weight control of male soldiers of the Armed Forces of Ukraine is not only about ensuring their somatic (physical) health. It is also the choice of proper nutrition, neat appearance, successful passing physical training tests, high work capacity and timely performance of military duties. Moreover, it is also the presence of special criteria – norms (standards), the development of which has unreasonably little attention in the past in the Armed Forces of Ukraine, but in the current conditions they are extremely relevant.

The relationship between heart girth, wither height, body length and body weight in 3- to 9.5-month-old pre-pubertal Finnish Ayrshire heifers gaining 600-650 g/d was analysed (experiment I). Regression analysis showed that heart girth was the trait most highly correlated to body weight (R2 = 0.969). Including body length or wither height as a second term in the regression, increased R2 values only slightly. When the relationship between heart girth and body weight was used to predict the body weight of heifers reared at two feeding levels (experiment II), the precision of prediction was affect
