The present study aimed to compare the accuracy of estimating the percentage of total body fat (% TBF) among three bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) devices: a singlefrequency BIA with four tactile electrodes (SF-BIA4), a single-frequency BIA with eight tactile electrodes (SF-BIA8) and a multi-frequency BIA with eight tactile electrodes (MFBIA8). Dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and hydrostatic weighing (HW) were used as references for the measured values. Forty-five healthy college student volunteers (21 males: 172.95. 5cm and …
