Abstract
The aim of this study is to assess the level of physical development of height and body weight and BMI of the first year female students at the University of Warmia and Mazury in Olsztyn, and to evaluate the strength and direction of secular changes in the period from 2000 to 2006. The analysis of BMI was carried out taking into account the stratified trends, i.e. depending on the place of residence and the location and type of secondary education. Studies were performed every 2 years during 2000–2006. The studies included 1925 female students. Presented ranges of variability and percentiles of BMI allow to conclude that the examined students are rather slim. Regression analysis not showed linear trends in any of the analyzed traits, and that there was no statistically significant differences between the means of BMI in the subsequent years of research, in any of the analyzed social categories. No secular trends (including stratified trends) illustrating the stability of living conditions in the considered period.
