  • Preučevanje nastopa menarhe pri Slovenkah = Studies of menarche in Slovenian girls
    Štefančič, Marija, 17.06.1945- ; Dragičević, Klavdija
    The article refers to all of the more important studies of menarche in Slovenia, with special reference to a study, carried out in Velenje fn the school year 1998/99, where 324 high-school female ... students, their mothers and grandmothers were surveyed. The average age at menarche was 13.2 years. A comparison between generattons shows an acceleration in occurrence of menarchebetween mothers and grandmothers but less so between mothers and daughters. Among the girls and their mothers surveyed, a high positive correlatlon was found. There was also a high correlation between granddaughters and grandmothers on the mother's side. The occurrence of menarche is influenced by hereditary as well as socio- economic factors. The most important external influence seems to be the mother's education and the consequent effects upon the environment in which the girl has been brought up.
