Morphosomatic evaluations of the female students at the Bucharest Polytechnic University 

Abstract

This research is a comparative study carried out over a period of 35 years on the subject of the morphosomatic characteristic features of the female students of the Polytechnic University from Bucharest.  By means of the Body Mass Index BMI, the characteristics of the body structure of a group of 136 female students (in the 1st and 2nd year) in 1972 and of one made up of 99 female students (in the 1st and 2nd year) in 2007 are investigated. The results obtained have been divided into weight categories and comparatively analysed, 1972 versus 2007, on percentage bases. The study aims to point out the influence that the complex economic and social transformations within the period between 1972 and 2007 had on the biological state of the 1st and 2nd year female students, particularised in this research through their morphosomatic aspects.
