Prediction of adult stature for Japanese population: A stepwise regression approach

Abstract

The longitudinal growth in stature for 509 males and 311 females was characterized from early childhood to adulthood. A triphasic generalized logistic (BTT) model (Bock et al. [1994] Chicago: SSI) was used through the AUXAL software program. Growth parameters were derived from the estimated distance and velocity curves for each individual. A set of estimated growth parameters, including adult stature, was selected to develop equations, through the forward stepwise regression method, for the prediction of adult stature for Japanese boys and girls.
