Techniques<br />
Precision is a matter of how consistent a measurer is<br />
with him or herself (intra-observer reliability) or<br />
with other measurers (inter-observer reliability).<br />
Accuracy is a matter of how closely obtained<br />
measures conform to true or ideal measures.<br />
Anthropometrists should verify their precision by<br />
calculating the Technical Error of Measurement(TEM)<br />
of their testing.<br />
The development of an anthropometrist’s touch is<br />
seldom achieved without extensive practice.
