Abstrakt: This article presents a study on physical growth in the U.S. A multiplicity of scientific disciplines study physical growth from a variety of angles at many different levels with increasingly refined and ingenious methods and techniques. Electroencephalography was used to study the developing brain of intact prenatal human fetus, the normal aged adult, brain phenomena in senile psychoses and retrolental fibroplasia. It is asserted that accurate knowledge of growth of individuals or the growth process itself cannot be accomplished by deriving a kind of average curve from measurements of different individuals and different ages.
