Abstract
Rasch's logistic model for growth is explained by reviewing his analysis of piglet growth. An early formulation was given in India when Rasch visited with Rao to describe the statistic metameter as the distinguishing characteristic for determining the rate of growth. Next, several examples are given demonstrating growth with plots of growth over time using characteristic time with truncated data. The results of these growth plots and analyses are summarized given their implications and restraints for using this approach in determining rate of growth.
