Promoting involvement in physical activity: positive and negative
influential factors

This resource explores factors that posititively and negatively influence
involvement in physical activity. Let's begin by looking at family and
social class.

The family can both enhance children's participation or act as a
barrier, depending on the importance the family places on physical fitness.

The higher the socio-economic status, the higher the level of
involvement in physical activity. Research shows that a person who has
received a tertiary education is much more likely to be physically active
than a person who leaves school early.
