“…The influence of friends in sports (non-)participation has already been shown in various studies (see Martins et al, 2015). The interviews allowed us to identify the influence of friends inside sports practice (Forté, 2006;Joncheray et al, 2015;Tannehil, 2015;Yungblut et al, 2012), as well as that of friends linked to other circles of social life (Devís-Devís, Beltrán-Carrillo, & Peiró-Velert, 2015;Forté, 2006). Likewise, the family was particularly invoked by teenagers who dropped out during primary school (age 6-10).…”

Sports practice is a way to be physically active. Despite public health efforts to support it, teenagers' sport participation is declining in some European countries. One reason for the decline is drop-out from sports practice. Various analytical frameworks have been applied to this issue but little is known about how teenagers understand their own pathway in the social context, ending with a drop-out from sports practice. This study aimed to identify reasons given by teenagers about sports practice drop-out situated within the circles of their everyday lives, through 100 semi-structured interviews. The results made it possible to classify the reasons for dropping out into five themes: friendship, body, family, school, and sport. Two processes lead to drop-out: constraints which prevent access to the circle of sports practice and/or a decision-making that brings them out of it. The respondents could mention one or multiple reasons, accumulating (snowball effect) or following one another (cascade effect). Depending on the moment of drop-out, some circles of social life played a preponderant role. The family seemed to be central in the decision to drop out during primary school, whereas sport itself and school were influential in middle and high schools respectively. The results showed that the more recent the drop-out, the more the teenagers planned to resume sports practice. These data are relevant for health education policies to prevent physical inactivity through sport. It is important not only to remove the constraints that prevent access to the circle of sports practice, but also to promote the most pleasurable sports experiences.

“…4 Qualitative data suggest that this decline in non-organized PA may be related to changing social norms during the transition to adolescence. 33,34 For example, it has been reported that participants who withdraw from PA during adolescence often note the development of a more competitive, performance-oriented PA climate during this stage of life. 33 This may discourage youth who are primarily motivated to engage in nonorganized PA for non-achievement reasons, such as friendship or a positive sense of self.…”

Background: Information about the domains of physical activity (PA) that are most prone to decline between late childhood (11 y), early adolescence (13 y), and mid-adolescence (15 y) may support more targeted health promotion strategies. This study explored longitudinal trends in nonorganized PA, organized PA, active transport and active chores/work between childhood and adolescence, and potential sociodemographic moderators of changes. Methods: Data were sourced from the Longitudinal Study of Australian Children (n = 4108). Participation in PA domains was extracted from youth time-use diaries. Potential moderators were sex, Indigenous status, language spoken at home, socioeconomic position, and geographical remoteness. Results: A large quadratic decline in nonorganized PA (−48 min/d, P < .001) was moderated by sex (β = 5.55, P = .047) and home language (β = 8.55, P = .047), with girls (−39 min/d) and those from a non-English speaking background (−46 min/d) declining more between 11 and 13 years. Active chores/work increased between 11 and 13 years (+4 min/d, P < .001) and then stabilized. Active transport increased among boys between 11 and 13 years (+6 min/d, P < .001) and then declined between 13 and 15 years (−4 min/d, P < .001). Organized PA remained stable. Conclusions: The longitudinal decline in PA participation may be lessened by targeting nonorganized PA between childhood and adolescence. Future interventions may target girls or those from non-English speaking backgrounds during this transition.

“…According to the European Commission (2011), participation in sports is a policy goal in many countries, "because sport is regarded as an important vehicle for generating all kinds of social, psychological, health and academic effects" (Pot, Verbeek, van der Zwan, & van Hilvoorde, 2016, p. 319). A lot of research has been conducted on the socio-economic differences and their effect on participation in sports activities (for example, see overview in Pot et al, 2016; see as well Dagkas & Quarmby, 2012;Devís-Devís, Beltrán-Carrillo, & Peiró-Velert, 2013;Kraaykamp, Oldenkamp, & Breedveld, 2013). Most research shows that there are "vast differences in sport participation rates between children of lower and higher social classes" (Pot et al, 2016, p. 321) in general.…”

In the first five chapters, we provided a general outline of the connections between Social Inequality, Childhood and the Mediachildhood (Chapter 2) and discussed the theoretical basis of an approach to socialisation (Chapter 3), which is integrated, praxeological, related to lifeworlds and freighted with methodological consequences for our longitudinal study (Chapter 4). In Chapter 5, we introduced the families of our panel in order to demonstrate how the results of the study arose. In the following chapter, we will present the main results and illustrate their provenance by recalling briefly some relevant theoretical and methodological aspects of our longitudinal study. According to our integrative approach, as outlined in Chapter 3, socialisation is conceptualised as a contextual, interwoven process, in which the children and the subsequent adolescents constructed the way they live against the background of the specific social situation, in which they grew up, and of their psycho-social development as individuals. Following Ien Ang's understanding of contextualism, we have to analyse the entangled interplay between the different contexts that shaped the children's growing up, for instance, the family, media, peers and educational institutions. In this chapter, we will present our first analytical step, where we describe and discuss the relevance of each context, together with its reflection in the children's everyday lives. As a second step, we CHAPTER 6 Socialisation in Different Socialisation Contexts
