Recumbent length is measured from the top of the participant's head to his or her heels while the participant is lying recumbent. This measure is taken among young individuals. Under usual field conditions, for reliability, the Anthropometrics Working Group suggests that the measurements be taken in duplicate. A third measurement should be taken if the first two measurements differ by >1.0 cm (1/4 inch). If it is necessary to take a third measurement, the two closest measurements are averaged. Should the third measurement fall equally between the first two measurements, all three should be averaged.
