Abstract

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the domestically made CALIPERs (Mojtahedi, Puiaye Armaghan, and Baniroo) for measuring skin fold thickness. 200 Tehran University students were assessed simultaneously by four kind of CALIPERs including Yagami, Mojtahedi, Puiaye Armaghan, and Baniroo (Tanara). For estimating the subjects BODY FAT PERCENTage (%Fat), middle of Triceps & Calf muscle was estimated by Loghman equation. Statistical analysis was performed using Paired T-test and Cronbach Alpha. The results of analysis showed that all three kind of CALIPERs were reliable (Mojtahedi=0.9737; Puiaye Armaghan = 0.9983; and Baniroo = 0.9984). Among them, only Puiaye Armaghan CALIPER was valid in measuring skin fold thickness (P=0.99). According to these results, Puiaye Armaghan mechanical CALIPER seemed to be a valid and reliable CALIPER; therefor, it was recommended that Puiaye Armaghan CALIPER be used in assessing skin fold thickness and estimation of BODY FAT PERCENTage.
