The aim of this study was to produce the growth references for Elazığ children aged 6-11 years. Data were collected in eight primary schools of Elazığ in 2007. Age- and gender-specific height, weight and body mass index (BMI) references were produced with LMS (Lambda-Mu-Sigma) method and compared with reported values in an Anatolian and a metropolitan city. A total of 3,342 (1,634 females, 1,708 males) children aged 6-11 years from among 4,258 students were included in the study. Age- and gender-specific height, weight and BMI references were produced. The 3^rd– 97^th percentiles were detected to be higher than the range of percentiles between 6-11-year-old children. We consider that this first local reference for Elazığ will provide a useful tool for health planning and monitoring of growth and development. Keywords : body mass index, growth, height, percentiles, weight.
