概要 This study examined the two-year longitudinal relationship between participation in specific sports and academic performance among adolescents. Data from 463 seventh-grade students were analyzed, focusing on sport type, cardiorespiratory fitness, and academic performance. The results showed that sports participation was positively associated with improved academic performance, partly through gains in cardiorespiratory fitness. Sports requiring complex motor skills and individual sports were also directly related to academic improvement. In contrast, quitting sports was negatively associated with academic performance through reduced fitness gains. These findings suggest that sustained participation in specific sports may support adolescents’ academic success.
