摘要：The aim of this research was to analyze postural disorders and nutritional status in adolescents, and to compare the incidence of postural disorders with regard to category of nutritional status and gender dimorphism. The sample of subjects comprised of 305 adolescents, 11 - 14 years old, of both gender (158 girls and 147 boys), students of the primary school from Vojvodina. Postural status was assessed by Napoleon Volanski method. Body mass index (BMI) was calculated by standard procedure. In establishment of differences in postural status, with regard to the age and the gender dimorphism, we used χ2 test. In order to establish differences in cumulative evaluation of postural status, we applied rank-sum Mann-Whitney Z-test. In establishment of differences in groups of subjects formed on the basis of degree of nutritional status, we applied Kruskall-Wollis test. The survey results show a statistically significant difference acording to the gender, in subjects aged 13 to 14 years, and a significant positive correlation of these two indicators.
