Jena schoolchildren are becoming slimmer over time, indicating ongoing secular changes. This trend of reduced body mass in adolescents has persisted, though its pace has slowed.

Area of Science:

  • Anthropology
  • Human Biology
  • Biometrics

Context:

  • Anthropological examinations of Jena schoolchildren over extended periods.
  • Assessment of secular changes in physical characteristics.
  • Documentation of long-term trends in human populations.

Purpose:

  • To report on the extent and current level of secular changes in Jena schoolchildren.
  • To analyze the trend of 'becoming slimmer' in a specific population.
  • To evaluate the continuation of secular acceleration in adolescent physical traits.

Summary:

  • Anthropological data reveal a consistent trend of decreasing body mass among Jena schoolchildren over long durations.
  • Secular changes, specifically a 'slimming' trend, are evident and continue in the current cohort.

  • The secular acceleration, while still present, shows signs of reduced intensity in recent years.

    • Impact:

    • Provides insights into population-level physical changes and their temporal dynamics.
    • Contributes to understanding secular trends in human growth and development.
    • Offers data for comparative studies on secular changes across different populations and timeframes.
