The influence of socioeconomic status on health-related fitness is not clear.
To examine the influence of socioeconomic status on health-related fitness in adolescents.
A total of 3,259 adolescents (15.0 +/- 1.3 y) from the Healthy Lifestyle in Europe by Nutrition in Adolescence Cross-Sectional Study (HELENA-CSS) participated in the study. Socioeconomic status was assessed by the family affluence scale (FAS). Speed-agility, muscular strength and cardiorespiratory fitness were assessed. Covariates included total body fat, physical activity and pubertal status.
Adolescents with high FAS had significantly higher fitness levels than their peers of lower FAS categories except for speed-agility and handgrip in boys. Overall, the associations observed presented a medium to large effect size.
These results suggest that socioeconomic status is positively associated with physical fitness in European adolescents independently of total body fat and habitual physical activity.

研究社会经济地位对青少年健康相关体能的影响。
来自欧洲青少年营养健康生活方式横断面研究(HELENA-CSS)的3259名青少年(15.0±1.3岁)参与了本研究。社会经济地位通过家庭富裕量表(FAS)进行评估。对速度敏捷性、肌肉力量和心肺适能进行了评估。协变量包括全身脂肪、身体活动和青春期状态。
除了男孩的速度敏捷性和握力外,FAS得分高的青少年体能水平显著高于FAS类别较低的同龄人。总体而言,观察到的关联呈现出中等至较大效应量。
这些结果表明,在欧洲青少年中,社会经济地位与体能呈正相关,且独立于全身脂肪和习惯性身体活动。
