We examined the relation- ship between sport participation and academic achievement in a sample of adolescents, while accounting for socioeconomic status (SES) and sex.
We analyzed data from a cohort of 271 Mid-Atlantic high school students who participated in a longitudinal study of risk and protective factors for substance use, teen parenting, and school drop out.
Sport participation at year one predicted academic achievement in English (p < .05) and mathematics (p < .05) at year 2, while controlling for academic achievement at year one. In both instances over other independent variables and covariates in the models, sport participation explains almost 7% of additional variance in the outcomes variables. We also found a positive relationship for participants who reported parents with some college experience as opposed to parents with no college experience, between sport participation and grades in English (p < .05) but not for mathematics.
Sport participation is positively related to academic achievement but the relationship diverges when students are compared across sex and by parental education. These findings suggest that the relation ship between sport participation and academic achievement may be influenced by SES and is related to sex.
我们在一个青少年样本中研究了体育活动参与与学业成绩之间的关系，同时考虑了社会经济地位（SES）和性别因素。
我们分析了来自271名大西洋中部地区高中生队列的数据，这些学生参与了一项关于物质使用、青少年育儿和辍学的风险与保护因素的纵向研究。
在控制了一年级学业成绩的情况下，一年级的体育活动参与情况可预测二年级的英语（p < .05）和数学（p < .05）学业成绩。在这两种情况下，相对于模型中的其他自变量和协变量，体育活动参与解释了结果变量中近7%的额外方差。我们还发现，对于那些报告父母有一定大学经历而非没有大学经历的参与者，体育活动参与与英语成绩之间存在正相关关系（p < .05），但与数学成绩无关。
体育活动参与与学业成绩呈正相关，但在按性别和父母教育程度对学生进行比较时，这种关系有所不同。这些发现表明，体育活动参与与学业成绩之间的关系可能受社会经济地位影响，且与性别有关。
