“…OLTA participants are, in general, less likely to be involved in substance abuse, delinquency, or bullying others (Farb and Matjasko 2012; Riese et al 2015). Time spent in OLTA might channel some stress-reduction efforts (Darling 2005), and affiliation to a certain club might negate the need for stabilization of one’s social position through risk behaviors (Viau et al 2015).…”

ObjectivesThe study aimed to assess the associations between participation in organized leisure-time activities (OLTA) and risk behaviors, and whether the associations differed by gender, age, and pattern of OLTA involvement.MethodsData from the 2013/2014 Health Behaviour in School-Aged Children study on 10,279 11-, 13-, and 15-year-old Czech adolescents (49.2% boys) were used. We assessed the associations between OLTA participation and risk behaviors, and modification by age and gender.ResultsOLTA participants were less likely to smoke, get drunk repeatedly, or skip school and, in contrast, more likely to get injured and fight repeatedly. The associations with lower occurrence of risk behaviors were the strongest for artists, while none was significant for adolescents participating only in team sports. Girls participating in OLTA had lower odds to smoke, get drunk, or skip school than boys, and these boys had higher odds to get injured or fight.ConclusionsOLTA participation is associated with lower occurrence of repeated substance use and truancy and inversely with higher odds for physical fights and injuries. Girls, in general, are at lower risk when participating in OLTA than boys.

“…Another key element of the social control theory is that youth possess a commitment to and engagement in conventional activities, such as community activities. For example, youth who are involved in extracurricular activities are less likely to engage in behavioral problems such as early school dropout and criminal arrests (Mahoney 2000), and bullying is less prevalent among youth who participate in a variety of extracurricular activities such as sports and clubs (Riese et al 2015).…”

This study described perceptions of bullying as a school characteristic and associations with school, academic, and health characteristics among a representative sample of First Nations high school students living off reserve in Canada using data from the 2012 Aboriginal Peoples Survey. Almost 4 in 10 of First Nations youth living off reserve perceived bullying as a problem at their schools. A perceived climate of bullying co-occurred with other negative school climate characteristics such as racism, violence, and the presence of alcohol and drugs. First Nations youth living off reserve who perceived bullying as a problem at school reported higher psychological distress and a higher prevalence of suicidal ideation, even after controlling for the effects of youth sex, age, and household income. These findings highlight the need to focus on school characteristics as perceived by youth to improve school climate and youth health.

“…Muchos de estos estudios han buscado mostrar su relación con el desempeño de los niños, niñas y adolescentes en la escuela, identificando su relación con el compromiso escolar de los estudiantes (Fredricks, 2011), la mejora de su rendimiento (Rodríguez & Bakieva, 2011) y de sus resultados escolares en general (Shulruf, 2010;Vukic & Zrilic, 2016). Se ha indagado, también, sobre el impacto de las actividades extraescolares en mejorar la pertenencia grupal como factor de protección en la adolescencia (Ruvalcaba, Gallegos, Borges, & Gonzalez, 2017), así como en fortalecer las relaciones intergrupales e interraciales en la escuela secundaria (Knifsend & Juvonen, 2017), en promover acciones prosociales en los jóvenes (Villarreal & Gonzalez, 2016), así como en prevenir el acoso escolar (Riese, Gjelsvik, & Ranney, 2015) y prevenir problemas de conducta disruptiva en adolescentes (Driessens, 2015). Las actividades extraescolares de niños, niñas y adolescentes, se han relacionado incluso con la construcción de su propia auto-determinación (Vinoski, Graybill, & Roach, 2016), mejoramiento en su autoestima (Kort-Butler & Hagewen, 2011), en su desarrollo moral cognitivo (Brown-Liburd & Porco, 2011) e, incluso, en general con su salud mental (Lushington et al, 2015).…”

The study analyzed the difference in self-efficacy of students who benefit from extracurricular activities in a public school in the city of Quito. The expectation of self-efficacy of 25 students who attended extracurricular activities was compared with that of 85 students who did not have this stimulus. For the measurement of self-efficacy, an adapted version for Ecuador of the Carrasco and Del Barrio instrument was used. The self-efficacy of the students who did not attend the center of extracurricular activities had an average of 111.47, compared to an average of 135.88 of the students who did attend the center of extracurricular activities. This difference was statistically significant with Student's t-test values of t = 4.11 and p <0.001. This means that, in the case of the school studied, students who attend after-school activities show a self-efficacy that is statistically better than those who do not, and therefore this type of activities should be promoted among children and adolescents.
