Abstract

The purpose of present study was to consider the ANTHROPOMETRIC CHARACTERISTICS of 11-17 years old Uromia female and to compare with NCHS STANDARD. 1522 students (634, guidance school and 888, high school students) had been chosen randomly to participate in this study. At first, general characteristics (height, weight and BMI) were measured and after that ANTHROPOMETRIC CHARACTERISTICS (Triceps skinfold, Subscapular skinfold, Suprailiac skinfold). Finally, mid-upper arm circumference, waist circumference, buttocks circumference, elbow breadth and wrist breadth were measured. Data analysis was conducted by t-student (independent). Results showed that means of height, weight' and BMI was significantly lower than NCHS in 11, 12, 13, 15, 16, 17 years old groups (p£0.01). Waist circumference was lower than NCHS in all old groups, but only it was significant in 6 and 17 years group (p£0.05). Buttock circumference was lower than NCHS in all old groups, but these differences wasn't significant. Mid-upper arm circumference was significantly lower than NCHS in 11,13,15,17 years old groups (p£0.01). Triceps skinfold was significantly lower than NCHS in 14 and 15 years old groups (p£0.05).Elbow breadth was significantly lower than NCHS in 11,12 and 13 years old groups (p£0.01). Wrist breadth was significantly lower than NCHS in 11 years old groups and was significantly higher than NCHS in 17 years old groups (p£0.05). Finally, the results of this study showed GIRL STUDENTs in Uromia schools don't have sufficient physical growth and probably they may have malnutrition. According to the results it is imperative to pursue the process of growth, regular body activity and suitable nutrition in girls based on international standard.
