采用水下称重法测定了美国圣巴巴拉加州大学64名女大学生的体密度。对受试者进行了6次皮下皮褶测量、4次围长测量和4次骨直径测量。平均体密度为1.049 g/ml（SD + 0.011），相当于脂肪重量的21.5%。在逐步多元回归分析中显示与密度相关性最高的皮褶是三头肌皮褶（-0.59），而最好的单周长测量是肱三头肌（-0.52）。与密度的多重相关性最高的是髂骨、三头肌和肩胛骨皮褶，以及腰围、腹围和臂围（0.72）。仅使用4个测量值，三头肌和肩胛骨皮肤褶皱和肩胛骨和手臂骨，导致0.70的相关性。在美国和其他国家的不同地理区域的年轻女性的密度，瘦体重和体脂百分比之间的比较。
The body density of 64 college females at the University of California, Santa Barbara, USA, was determined by the underwater weighing method. Six subcutaneous skin-fold measurements, 4 girth measurments, and 4 bone diameters were taken on the subjects. The mean body density was 1.049 g/ml (SD + 0.011), which corresponded to 21.5% by weight of fat. The skin fold which showed the highest correlation with density in a stepwise multiple regression analysis was the tricep skin fold (-0.59), while the best single girth measurement was the buttock (-0.52). The highest multiple correlation with density was from the iliac, tricep, and scapula skin-fold, and the buttock, abdomen, and arm girths (0.72). Using only 4 measurements, tricep and scapula skin folds and buttock and arm giths, resulted in a correlation of 0.70. Comparisons are made between density, lean body weight, and percent body fat of young females in various geographic regions in the USA and in other countries.
