BMI (Body Mass Index) is a common measure used to determine if a person, including a child, is overweight. It takes into account both height and weight to calculate a numerical value that indicates whether someone is underweight, normal weight, overweight, or obese. Other tests such as the MMPI (Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory), WISC (Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children), and WAIS (Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale) are not relevant in determining a child's weight.
