Table II.

Nested analysis of the variance of anthropometrical measurements in 64 children.

Source of variation % of total variance (P)
Sum of skinfolds Waist circumference
Between subjects 97.0 (<0.0001) 96.7 (<0.0001)
Between-days within subjects 0.00 (0.99) 0.00 (0.99)
Between investigators within subjects and days 2.78 (<0.0001) 2.67 (<0.0001)
Error of measurement 0.22 0.60

P values are the result of the comparison between the variability of the corresponding factor and the factor immediately nested inside.
