摘要

Objective: to investigate the accuracy of bioelectric impedance analysis and anthropometry to assess percentage body fat (BF %) against underwater weighing (UW). Design and Methods: a cross sectional study, 102 girls, aged 11-15, were recruited from two Junior High Schools in Jakarta. Measurements: measurements of percentage body fat (BF%) using underwater weighing (UW), bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA), Tanita BIA, body mass index (BMI) and skinfold equations. Results: Correlation between different methods was significant (p ＜ 0.001). The mean difference of BF % from BIA, Tanita, BMI and skinfold compared to UW were 1.87+3.14, -3.46+3.28, 1.57+2.90 and -0.360+3.09, respectively. Assessments between UW and other methods were significantly different (p ＜ 0.0001) except for skinfolds (p = 0.3031). Conclusion: The results between UW and other methods was significantly different, except for skinfolds. There was overestimation and underestimation of BF%. The agreement between skinfold measurement and underwater weighing was also influenced by menarche status.
