    Abstract:
    The main objective of this work is to evaluate, with the nutritional anthropometrics parameters brachial circumference and skinfolds, the schoolboys growth from Málaga. It is one study with 2,331, between 6 and 13 years old, of healthy children, representative of the schoolboys population from Málaga during the academic course 88-89. They obtain percentile scores, mean values and DS for the different age groups and sexes of brachial and suprailiac. The percentiles scores for all parameters were significantly different in our children, both for age and sex, than the standard score currently used.
