Study on the assessment of somatic development and growth of the 7th grade students
Abstract
The confirmatory study on the somatic development of 7th grade students aims to evaluate physical growth and identify variations related to demographic and environmental factors. It involves anthropometric measurements to determine students’ height, weight and body mass index (BMI). The aim of the study is to identify the somatic development during one year. The methodology involves selecting a representative sample of students (boys), obtaining informed consent, and taking measurements in a controlled setting. The results are presented graphically, highlighting the distribution of height, weight and BMI. Discussions interpret these results in the context of existing literature, addressing influencing factors such as physical activity, diet and family environment. The research methods used in the study were: the study of specialized literature, the observation method, the graphic and tabular method, as well as the method of anthropometric measurements.
