Thesis (Ph.D.)--Michigan State University, 1999.

The interrelationships among growth, physical fitness, habitual physical activity, SES, race and nutritional status of 389 ten year old South African boys attending 18 schools in the greater Johannesburg area were considered in this study. Boys were classified by race using anthroscopic appraisal, and all boys of mixed ancestry (so-called "Colored") were excluded from the sample. Boys of African (n = 208) and Indian (n = 137) ancestry were stratified into higher (n = 107, n = 99, respectively) and lower (n = 101, n = 38, respectively) SES groups. All boys of European ancestry (n = 42) were classified as higher SES. Data for each subject included anthropometry, physical fitness, 3-day physical activity records, habitual physical activity questionnaires, and sociodemographic data. Nutritional status was based on body mass index and was classified as undernourished, nutritionally normal or overweight.

520 $a The interrelationships among growth, physical fitness, habitual physical activity, SES, race and nutritional status of 389 ten year old South African boys attending 18 schools in the greater Johannesburg area were considered in this study. Boys were classified by race using anthroscopic appraisal, and all boys of mixed ancestry (so-called "Colored") were excluded from the sample. Boys of African (n = 208) and Indian (n = 137) ancestry were stratified into higher (n = 107, n = 99, respectively) and lower (n = 101, n = 38, respectively) SES groups. All boys of European ancestry (n = 42) were classified as higher SES. Data for each subject included anthropometry, physical fitness, 3-day physical activity records, habitual physical activity questionnaires, and sociodemographic data. Nutritional status was based on body mass index and was classified as undernourished, nutritionally normal or overweight.
520 $a Race accounts for a small percentage of the variation in body proportions and fatness. Body mass, the sitting height/stature ratio, fatness and relative fat distribution differ significantly by nutritional status when race and SES are statistically controlled. A small percentage of the variation (1% to 5%) in the push-ups, 9 minute run, sit and reach, and grip strength is explained by race when the effects of race and nutritional status are controlled. Nutritional status accounts for a minimal amount of the variation in the sit-ups and dash (1%), but for a larger proportion of the variance in absolute grip strength (11%) and grip strength per unit body mass (22%). SES contributes an additional 2% to the variation in absolute grip strength. Race accounts for little of the variance in estimated energy expenditure (kcal/kg/day) in sedentary (4%) and moderate to vigorous (2%) physical activity (MVPA). There are significant nutritional status differences in MVPA and total estimated energy expenditure (kcal/kg/day) among Indian boys when the effects of SES are controlled, and in light activity for European boys.
520 $a In this sample of South African boys, most of the variation in measures of growth and physical fitness is related to factors other than race and SES.
