Methods: A sample of healthy adults (52.2% female; age, 18 to 69 yr; body mass index, 15.7
to 49.5 kg· m− 2) completed hydrostatic weighing, dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry, and …

Background Methods used to estimate percent body fat can be classified as a laboratory or
field technique. However, the validity of these methods compared to multiple-compartment …

The purpose of this study was twofold: 1) compare body volume (BV) estimated from dual
energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) to BV from a criterion underwater weighing (UWW) with …

Objective: To generate equations for the prediction of percent body fat (% BF) via a four-
compartment criterion body composition model from anthropometric variables and age …

This study aimed to develop a prediction equation for segmental percent fat from
anthropometric measurements. The subjects were 107 adults, consisting of 77 males and 30 …

OBJECTIVE: To compare 16 currently used total body fat methods to a six-compartment
criterion model based on in vivo neutron activation analysis. DESIGN: Observational, inter …

Objective Recently, new body indices, including body adiposity (BAI), a body shape (ABSI),
and body roundness (BRI) indices have been developed to estimate adiposity. The aim of …

Objective To identify which equation, Siri or Brozek, based on the two compartment model,
provides a more accurate conversion of body density (BD) in percent body fat (% BF) in a …
