Resumen

The purpose of this study was to make a comparative analysis of percentage body fat (%FM) measurement by two indirect and simplicity types of techniques: anthropometricand bioimpedance. We have applied several published BIA and an anthropometric equations to a sample of 303 adult women belonging to a rural central-region of Spain. The reference method is the Siri %FM with Durnin & Womersley especific density from four skinfolds (Siri-age-sex). Methodological diferences and agreement degree among the methods were analyzed with Pearson and Spearman and intraclass correlation coefficients and Bland-Altman analysis with Siri-age-sex formula. Test results showed a significant linear with criterion method. BIA showed a hight agreement according to Bland-Altman analysis with the reference standard.
