244 Australian schoolchildren aged between 8 and 12 years indicated their current and ideal body sizes by means of Collins' pictorial figures. Children's height and weight were also measured.

The data from 94,302 urban healthy children were used to set up the database of length/height (length was measured for children under 3 years) and weight. The LMS method was used to smooth the growth curves, with estimates of L, M, and S parameters, values of percentile and Z-score ...

This study examines the weight-for-length index (WLI)--weight/height/the WLI constant, where the WLI constant is the ratio between the 50th percentile weight and height for the age and sex--for its appropriateness in estimating the status of body weight among school children. The WLI constant...
