    Area of Science:

    • Pediatric Endocrinology
    • Human Growth and Development
    • Longitudinal Studies

    Context:

    • The First Zurich Longitudinal Study (1954-1980) provides a unique dataset on pubertal progression.
    • Understanding typical pubertal timelines is crucial for identifying developmental deviations.

    Purpose:

    • To document the onset and duration of key secondary sex characteristics during puberty in a Swiss cohort.
    • To explore the interrelationships between the timing and duration of these pubertal changes.

    Summary:

    • Presents mean and standard deviations for the onset and duration of genital development, testicular growth, breast development, menarche, pubic hair development, and adolescent growth spurt.
    • Analyzes data from 142 Swiss boys and 142 Swiss girls observed between ages 8 and 18.
