Being able to exploit features of the human face to predict health and fitness can serve as an evolutionary advantage.

We sought to determine whether observers are able to extract more complex features, namely body weight. If possible, it could be used as a predictor for health and fitn...
متن کاملPrediction of lean body mass from height and weight.
Lean body mass, calculated from the measurement of total body water using antipyrine space, was estimated in 29 males and 27 females. It was found that the lean body mass could be predicted from the height and weight, and formulae for both males and females have been produced with multiple correlation coefficients (r) of 0.96 and 0.83 respectively.

متن کاملFamily resemblances of height, weight, and body fatness.
In a study of 256 families, among whom were twins, midparent-adult son correlations for height, weight, and combined skinfold measurements were 0.67, 0.47, and 0.23 respectively. The corresponding midparent-adult daughter correlations were 0.63, 0.42, and 0.24. Midparent-growing offspring correlations were highest for height, less for weight, and insignificant for combined skinfold measurements...
متن کاملHeight, body weight, and risk of prostate cancer.
Using data from the Health Professionals Follow-Up Study, we prospectively examined the relationships between height, body mass index, waist and hip circumferences, and risk of total and advanced (extraprostatic and metastatic) prostate cancer. In addition, we assessed adiposity during childhood, adolescence, and early, middle, and late adulthood using pictograms in relation to prostate cancer ...
