“…Of the 17 articles identified, one was excluded as it was only published in Spanish, 42 one as it was only an abstract, 43 one as the socioecological model was a recommendation but not part of the research design or analysis 44 (Figure 2). Three more were excluded as they were literature reviews or commentaries and thus not empirical research 45‐47 .…”

A question of time: a brief systematic review and temporal extension of the socioecological framework as applied in sport and physical activity

The dominant socioecological framework (SEF) is informed by Bronfenbrenner's first-generation SEF and ignoring the more nuanced later versions that highlight the interconnections and temporal realities of sport and physical activity interventions in the real-world. To explore how SEFs have been used in sport medicine, injury prevention, and sport participation, this article uses a brief review to investigate applications of SEFs to inform the development of a new framework that can be applied in future research and practice. A systematic review of the Web of Science database for the 5-year period to December 2018 was conducted using keywords related to sport, participation, and injury prevention: "socioecological" AND ((sport* AND injury) OR (sport* AND medicine) OR (sport* AND participation)). Articles were analyzed to explore: country of origin, research themes; sample; methods, the "generation" of the SEF used, and key theorists. Of the 10 articles retained, most were on sport and/ or physical activity participation (77%), typically from Belgium (40%) and Australia (30%). All drew upon Bronfenbrenner's first-generation SEF. These results informed the development of a new and novel temporal extension of the SEF (TESEF) reflecting Bronfenbrenner's third-generation, ie Process-Person-Context-Time model that is more relevant to a pragmatic, real-world, research approach going forward.

“…PA participation patterns and influential factors in studies were different due to participants' age, which were basically categorized as children and adolescent cohorts. In studies that included children, parental support [5,6,53,70,71,76,78], and neighborhood environments [8,62,68] were dominant influential factors in children's non-organized PA participation. Among studies with adolescent participants, PA participation was affected by more internal factors: PA enjoyment and self-efficacy [56,59,74,80] and social interactions [52,54,55,58,60,64,69,77].…”

“…A physically active parent was significantly associated with girls' and boys' PA and/or sports participation. Parents' gender was found to be a strong factor in children and adolescents' PA participation [8,53,71,78]. In addition, parental modeling of PA before adolescence and logistic support during adolescence could help girls establish early patterns of PA habits [5], and girls who perceived a more supportive home PA environment were more physically active [62].…”

“…One of the major limitations of the selected studies was the self-reported PA, which might imply a potential bias of subjectivity. In 26 studies, the measures were based on adolescents' self-report regarding yes or no questions and secondary data [6,7,38,39,52,53,55,[58][59][60][61][62][63][64][66][67][68][69][70][71][73][74][75]77,78,80,81], which might be one potential limitation of this study. Self-reports have several shortcomings with respect to validity and reliability in terms of recall and social desirability biases.…”

Physical activity (PA) and sports are efficient ways to promote the young generation’s physical and mental health and development. This study expected to demonstrate the complexity of correlates associated with children’s and adolescents’ non-organized PA participation. Following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-analysis Protocols (PRISMA), a systematic review and meta-analysis were applied. Seven electronic databases were systematically searched to identify eligible articles based on a series of inclusion and exclusion criteria. The internal validity of the systematic reviews thus identified was evaluated using a validated quality instrument. Calculations were produced in SPSS 27.0 and Comprehensive Meta-Analysis 3.3. Thirty-nine eligible studies (N = 324,953) with moderate to high quality were included. No potential publication bias was detected using statistical analyses. The meta-analysis revealed that the overall ecological factors correlated positively with children and adolescents’ PA; the meta-analytic average of the correlations was (′r = 0.32, p < 0.001). Results from subgroup analysis indicated that theory-based influence factors achieved moderate effect with boys (′r = 0.37, p < 0.001) and girls (′r = 0.32, p < 0.001) in PA participation. Interestingly, higher correlations were found between ecological factors and twins’ PA participation (′r = 0.61, p = 0.001). Further, individual (′r = 0.32, p < 0.001), macro-, and chronosystems factors (′r = 0.50, p < 0.001) appeared slightly more influential than microsystems factors (′r = 0.28, p < 0.001) on children and adolescents’ PA participation. Although findings from the included studies covered were to some extent heterogeneous, it is possible to identify consistent correlates of PA in children and adolescents. The results supported that PA is a complex and multi-dimensional behavior, which is determined by numerous biological, psychological, sociocultural, and environmental factors. Future studies that focus on the integration effect of macrosystem and chronosystem environmental factors, and apply longitudinal designs and objective measurements are encouraged to further unfold the complexity of the ecological system and its implications in promoting children and adolescents’ PA participation.

“…Since 2008, the percentage of households with children that have been unable to buy meat or fish every second day has more than doubled during the economic crisis in countries such as Estonia, Greece, Italy and Portugal (27), and data from the Portuguese National Health Surveys revealed that the consumption of soup, fish and meat significantly decreased between 2005 and 2014 (28). The economic crisis may have reinforced the socioeconomic disparities in obesity related behaviors previously reported for Portuguese children, namely that children from lower-SEP had higher odds of consuming saturated and fat diets(29) and less probability of participating in extracurricular sport activities(30).…”

Aim To observe the trends of overweight and obesity among Portuguese children from 2002 to 2016, before and during the years of the economic crisis, and compare these trends according to family's socio‐economic position (SEP). Methods Prevalence rates were calculated using data from six studies providing comparable estimates from 2002, 2009, 2011, 2013 and 2016 for children aged 6–10‐years living in the Portuguese Midlands (n = 7192; 50.2% girls). Height and weight were objectively measured; children and family characteristics were collected by standard questionnaires. A logistic regression was used to test the association between variables. Results Between 2002 and 2016, there was a decrease in the prevalence of overweight and obesity, which reached a statistical significance for girls. The prevalence of overweight, including obesity, was high (low‐SEP = 30.5%; high‐SEP = 20.5%) and a widening of socio‐economic inequalities was found. Socio‐economically disadvantaged children had more than 2 times the odds of having obesity than children from higher‐SEP, even after adjusting for sex, physical activity and screen‐time. Conclusion While a decrease in overall rates of overweight and obesity was observed from 2002 to 2016, the social inequalities have been widened which suggest the need for public efforts to promote healthy weight at a population level, especially in lower socio‐economic classes.

Child participation in sports is influenced by patterns of lifestyle‐related behaviors

Abstract: Future interventions to promote children's participation in sports should be based on a socio-ecological model and targeted to high-risk populations showing multiple risks such as a lower socio-economic status, inactive parents, or obese children.
