Figure 2From: Childhood body mass index trajectories: modeling, characterizing, pairwise correlations and socio-demographic predictors of trajectory characteristics Distribution of residual BMI variance (a measure for goodness of fit) among 3,289 children from 1 week to 18 years of age. Lower residual BMI variance indicates a better fit of an individual's data points to the individual-specific model. A) Among 1,680 boys, B) Among 1,609 girls.Back to article page
