|
For the measurement on the fat content in University Students, an intensive examination was conducted on a total of 3,017 Students (male 2,566, female 451), from 16 to 25 years of age.
The subjects were all students who had passed the written entrance examination for Seoul National University. Total Body Fat amount was measurement by skin-fold thickness with a skin-fold caliper (Manufactured by Cambridge Scientific Industrial Inc. U.S.A.) at four sites of the body, and it was calculated by Kim´ s5,11, 25) and Lees1) regression equation.
As a result of this survey, the following conclusions were obtained;
1. Average body height by Anthropometric was male 167.66cm and female 156.02cm.
Average body weight by Anthropometric was male 54.601kg and female 48.23kg.
2. The mean -skin-fold thickness measured with a lange skin-fold caliper was;
at the Sub-scapular: male 10.33mm and female 14.15mm,
Abdominal: male 8.68mm and female 14.14mm,
Lumbar: male 8.83mm and 13.09mm,
Upper arm: male 5.83mm and female 11.94mm,
Total average: male 8.43mm and female 13.33mm,
in all cases the female measurements were higher than male.
3. Data on body fat amounts according to body fat weight regression equation were;
In male: Fat Weight=9.41kg,
Fat Free Weight=45.19kg,
Fat Weight/Fat Free Weight(%)=20.82%,
Fat Weight/Total Body Mass(%)=23.28%(Body-fat amount %).
In female: Fat Weight=11.23kg,
Fat Free Weight=37.00kg,
Fat Weight/Fat Free Weight(%).=30.351,
Fat Weight/Total Body Mass(%)=23.28%.
The female´s value was higher than the males.
