Evaluation of bioelectrical impedance analysis in measuring body fat in 6-to-12-year-old boys compared to air displacement plethysmography (2022)
Journal Article
Mahaffey, R., Brown, N., Cramp, M., Morrison, S. C., & Drechsler, W. I. (2023). Evaluation of bioelectrical impedance analysis in measuring body fat in 6-to-12-year-old boys compared to air displacement plethysmography. British Journal of Nutrition, 130(6), 1098 - 1104. https://doi.org/10.1017/S0007114522004019

Air displacement plethysmography (ADP) has been considered the 'standard' method to determine body fat in children due to superior validity and reliability compared to bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA). However, ADP and BIA are used interchangea...
