Socioeconomic status, sport participation, and school-related outcomes among Norwegian adolescents: a cross-sectional analysis

Higher SES was found among adolescents participating in sport compared to sport dropouts, underscoring the importance of promoting affordable sport opportunities during adolescence. Current sport participation was associated with favorable school-related outcomes compared to sport dropouts, such as lower odds for perceived school stress and tiredness in school, and higher odds of perceived sense of belonging in school and perceived teacher care.
