20
Q

A

3rd

21
Q

As you get older, the lines in a growth curve ____ ___ due to..

A
  • spread out
  • individual variation
  • less predictable
22
Q

Variance can be seen in a growth curve through…

A

how much space between lines

23
Q

If you’re in the 15th percentile at age 2, you should…

A
  • continues along the 15th percentile

- moving up is not a good thing, childhood obesity

24
Q

Slope of lines in a growth curve =

A

velocity

25
Q

In velocity curves for height, peak happens earlier for ____ than ____.

A

girls than boys

26
Q

Age of take off in girls for velocity curves for height:

A

10

27
Q

Age of take off in boys for velocity curves for height:

A

11.5

28
Q

In general, peak height velocity tends to be higher for _____ than _____.

A
  • boys than girls

- part of the reason why boys end up being taller than girls

29
Q

Late maturers on average are ______.

A
  • taller

- the earlier you hit your peak height velocity, the earlier you shut down growth

30
Q

A

sigmoid

31
Q

35
Q

Growth stunting:

A

if you can detect this early enough and can change the environment, they will regrow and get back to where they should have been

36
Q
