“…One is that problems with peers because of poorer cognitive and social skills in early school years might lead to developing emotional symptoms that impact on relationships in the classroom and home [27]. It is also conceivable that self-esteem plays a role in a self-perpetuating cycle, and research demonstrates that relative younger age adversely affects self-esteem [28]. Consider in this regard the possibility that relatively younger children feel less skilled than relatively older ones and that this undermines their self-esteem, which then makes them feel even less capable, with this negative feedback continuing over time.…”

“…The relationship between RAE and attainment seem to be consistent apparent across subject, and the early RAEs seem to persist throughout the education process (Massey, Elliott, & Ross, 1996;Sharp, Hutchinson, & Whetton, 1994). Even more alarmingly, relatively younger students are overrepresented in referral to psychiatric support, and have, in general, lower self-esteem and more health problems (Goodman, Gledhill, & Ford, 2003;Sharp, George, Sargent, O'Donnell, & Heron, 2009;Thompson, Barnsley, & Battle, 2004). The perhaps most disturbing consequence of the RAE was described by Thompson, Barnsley, and Dyck (1999), who found higher incidences of suicide in the younger part of a school entry cohort as compared with their earlier born peers.…”

“…Para além da competição, a desvantagem dada aos atletas nascidos nos últimos meses do ano pode resultar em exclusão ou abandono dos mesmos do esporte, levando-os a não atingir outros benefícios, psicológicos e sociais, perseguidos com a prática e o ingresso em uma equipe esportiva por crianças e adolescentes 11 . O sentimento de autoeficácia esportiva desses atletas, por exemplo, pode ser diminuído 12 , podendo resultar em uma reduzida participação desses indivíduos em programas de exercícios físicos 13,14 , sendo esse um efeito passível de se estender até a vida adulta 15 . Ao analisar modalidades coletivas é possível encontrar diversos estudos que investigaram a temática em esportes como o futebol 10,16 , futsal 17 , basquetebol 18 e hockey 19 , entre outros.…”
