Book excerpt: Abstract: Stratification research has demonstrated that family income, parental education and family structure are consistent predictors of academic success. Some researchers have suggested that participating in high school interscholastic sports also leads to better academic performance. Unfortunately, empirical evidence of this relationship is weak. I use data from the National Education Longitudinal Study of 1988 to provide a rigorous test of the effect of participating in high school interscholastic sports on grades and standardized test scores net of relevant controls. Equally important, I explore the mechanisms through which sports participation affects academic success including peer affiliation, social-psychological well-being, and parental support. Analyses show that participating in high school interscholastic sports is related to gains in standardized test scores and math and English grades between eighth and twelfth grades. The positive effects of participating in interscholastic sports are largely a function of differences between athletes and non-athletes in peer group orientation, social capital, self-esteem, locus of control and work ethic. Further tests indicate that participating in interscholastic sports improves grades more than participating in academic clubs, student council, music, cheerleading, drama, journalism clubs, hobby clubs or vocational clubs. Results suggest the importance of parental involvement and support in school activities. I conclude by discussing the implications of my findings for adolescent well-being and educational success.

This book was released on 2015-04-06 with total page 1120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The essential reference for human development theory, updated and reconceptualized The Handbook of Child Psychology and Developmental Science, a four-volume reference, is the field-defining work to which all others are compared. First published in 1946, and now in its Seventh Edition, the Handbook has long been considered the definitive guide to the field of developmental science. Volume 3: Social, Emotional, and Personality Development presentsup-to-date knowledge and theoretical understanding of the several facets of social, emotional and personality processes. The volume emphasizes that any specific processes, function, or behavior discussed in the volume co-occurs alongside and is inextricably affected by the dozens of other processes, functions, or behaviors that are the focus of other researchers' work. As a result, the volume underscores the importance of a focus on the whole developing child and his or her sociocultural and historical environment. Understand the multiple processes that are interrelated in personality development Discover the individual, cultural, social, and economic processes that contribute to the social, emotional, and personality development of individuals Learn about the several individual and contextual contributions to the development of such facets of the individual as morality, spirituality, or aggressive/violent behavior Study the processes that contribute to the development of gender, sexuality, motivation, and social engagement The scholarship within this volume and, as well, across the four volumes of this edition, illustrate that developmental science is in the midst of a very exciting period. There is a paradigm shift that involves increasingly greater understanding of how to describe, explain, and optimize the course of human life for diverse individuals living within diverse contexts. This Handbook is the definitive reference for educators, policy-makers, researchers, students, and practitioners in human development, psychology, sociology, anthropology, and neuroscience.
