16 Permission to perform the study was granted by the Ministry of Education and the directors of schools. An informed consent form was delivered to the parents for their approval and signatures prior the conduction of the study. Approval to conduct this survey was granted by the "Ethical Committee" of the National Research Centre.
17 Every subject was subjected to the following:.
18 Then the following adiposity indices were calculated:
19 By using pupil sex, age, weight and height approximated to the nearest unit, the following were derived:
20 Then the following were calculated:
21 Student's t test was used to examine the sex differences. Pearson s correlation coefficients were used to assess relationships between independent variables.
