Is the parameter scale suppose do be different for different figures?

Hi, a beginners question.
I just noticed that several of my Daz figures have different parameter scale, Bethany7 for example is 97% while Ivan7 is 102.5%.
Is this the way it should be? Or have I messed something up?
Thanks in advance.

That's right, it's one way to achieve different sizes (the other being to scale the morph itself and adjust the rigging to match).
Thank you that was good news, I was worried that I had broke something in Daz studio.
