Socioeconomic Status and Physical Fitness Levels among University Students
Journal Title: International Journal of Social Science And Human Research - Year 2024, Vol 7, Issue 10
Abstract
This study examines the correlation between socioeconomic status (SES) and physical fitness levels among university students in Henan, China. The research considers various SES indicators, including parental education, household income, and access to healthcare, in relation to students' self-assessed physical fitness and activity levels across multiple domains, such as vigorous physical activity, organized sports, and recreational activities. Findings reveal that students from lower SES backgrounds often face barriers, such as limited access to safe recreational spaces and organized sports, which may hinder their ability to participate in physical activities, thereby impacting their fitness levels. In contrast, students from higher SES backgrounds have greater access to fitness resources, leading to more favorable physical fitness outcomes. The study underscores the need for policy interventions and school programs that prioritize equitable access to physical activity opportunities for students of all socioeconomic backgrounds.
