Resumo: Objective: To compare two different indirect methods for measuring body fat percentage in adolescent students. Methods: Analytical cross-sectional study conducted with 300 adolescent students from 12 to 17 years old in the city of Petrolina, state of Pernambuco. All patients underwent anthropometric assessment. The body fat percentage was estimated through skinfold thickness and bipolar bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA). The tests followed recommended procedures and subjects were properly dressed for the assessment. The different body fat percentages were compared using the Wilcoxon nonparametric test and correlated by Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient with a significance level of p≤0.05. Results: The median (interquartile range) age of the subjects was 13.0 (13.0–15.0) years with a total number of 214 (71.3%) girls. The compared methods showed strong positive linear correlation (r=0.76, p

Métodos: Estudio analítico de carácter trasversal realizado com 300 estudiantes entre los 12 y 17 años en la ciudad de Petrolina, Pernambuco, Brasil. Todos fueron sometidos a la evaluación antropométrica con los porcentuales de grasa corporal estimados por pliegues cutáneos y bioimpedância eléctrica (BIA) bipolar. Las pruebas siguieron los procedimientos recomendados y los evaluados estaban vestidos según las recomendaciones. Los distintos porcentuales de grasa corporal fueron comparados a través de la prueba no paramétrica de Wilcoxon y correlacionados por el coeficiente de correlación linear de Spearman con nível de significancia de p≤0,05. Resultados: La mediana (intervalo intercuartil) de edad de los evaluados fue de 13,0 (13,0–15,0) años siendo 214 (71,3%) niñas.

Métodos: Estudo analítico, de caráter transversal, realizado com 300 escolares entre 12 e 17 anos na cidade de Petrolina, Pernambuco, Brasil.Todos foram submetidos à avaliação antropométrica, tendo os percentuais de gordura corporal estimados por dobras cutâneas e bioimpedância elétrica (BIA) bipolar. Os testes seguiram os procedimentos recomendados e os avaliados estavam vestidos segundo recomendações. Os distintos percentuais de gordura corporal foram comparados através do teste não paramétrico de Wilcoxon e correlacionados pelo coeficiente de correlação linear de Spearman, com nível de significância de p≤0,05.
