Book excerpt: "The purpose of this study was to determine if and to what degree a relationship existed between physical fitness and the academic achievement of ninth-grade public school students in Arkansas. A sample of 152 students from four different schools participated in the study. The dependent variable was academic achievement as measured by the Standard Achievement Test, 10th edition (SAT 10). Scores were obtained for both reading and math. The main predictor variable was physical fitness as measured by the Fitnessgram criterion-referenced evaluation. A partial correlational analysis was performed to determine whether a relationship existed between the level of physical fitness and academic achievement--Abstract.

Book excerpt: The purpose of this mixed methods study was to examine the relationship between students' physical education fitness norms and academic achievement measures in a suburban elementary school. Does high or low performance on physical fitness tests align with high or low academic achievement from standardized testing? The study sought to determine the importance of physical education and its role in promoting student physical fitness, as well as its possible influence on student academic achievement. School administrators, general education and special education teachers, special area teachers, and other support staff completed a survey to determine if there is a relationship between physical fitness and academic achievement. School administrators also completed a questionnaire regarding their opinion of the importance of physical education if it relates to academic achievement. Two focus groups, consisting of third and fourth grade teachers in the school district, openly discussed if physical education helps with academic achievement. The study sought to determine whether physical education is linked to student academic achievement. (ProQuest abstract).

This book was released on 2015 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It was not known if, or to what degree, a relationship existed among academic achievement in science, physical fitness, and preadolescent obesity. This quantitative, correlational study explored the relationship between physical fitness, preadolescent obesity, and academic achievement in 136 seventh grade students at an urban middle school in South Carolina who received 50 minutes of physical education daily for one semester. The researcher hypothesized that the level of physical fitness influences preadolescent obesity and academic performance. The hypotheses stated that there would be a positive correlation between physical fitness and achievement in science, a negative correlation between preadolescent obesity and achievement in science, and a negative correlation between fitness and preadolescent obesity. Pearson product-moment correlations were used to test the hypotheses. Physical fitness was measured using the FitnessGram. Academic performance was measured using the science benchmark assessment. The results revealed that physical fitness was positively correlated with academic achievement (r = .32, p = .001), obesity was negatively related to academic achievement (r = -.27, p = .001), and students' BMI was negatively related to physical fitness (r = -.71, p

This book was released on 2014 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between physical fitness and academic achievement. Subjects consisted of third- through eighth-grade students who were enrolled in the Floyd County School System located in Rome, Georgia, during the 2011-2012 school year. The data for this study were taken from the subjects' FITNESSGRAM scores, Criterion Referenced Competency Test scores, average daily attendance, and socio-economic status. The multiple regression analyses revealed modest correlations between body mass index and achievement in reading. The effects of fitness on academic achievement were positive but small. A higher level of physical fitness was associated with higher academic performance in school.

This book was released on 2009 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study compared fifth grade students' physical fitness levels to academic achievement based on the premise that health and physical fitness has an effect on one's ability to learn and achieve academically. Due to No Child Left Behind and the mounting pressures to reach Adequate Yearly Progress, many school officials view non-assessed activities like physical education and recess as unnecessary, consequently creating a case for the elimination of any subject that is not directly measured through standardized testing. Finding a link between fitness and academic achievement may cause educational leaders to reevaluate time spent during the school day. Data was collected for 113 students during the 2008-2009 school year by using the FitnessGram, STAR Reading and Math Percentiles, and Grade Point Averages (GPA's). Through multiple regression, the researcher found statistically significant relationships between physical fitness and two of the three measures used for academic achievement: STAR Math Percentiles (p = 0.0063 0.05; R = 0.26 0.195) and GPA's (p = 0.0124 0.05; R = 0.23 0.195). Therefore, the hypothesis was accepted, validating a link between fitness and academic achievement. This study does not prove causality; it is more probable that physical fitness and academic achievement influence each other in ways that are still vague.
