"From 1972, the year Title IX was passed, to 1978, the number ofhigh school girls playing school-sponsored sports increased nearly seven-fold to over 2 million from 300,000"

"Specifically, researchers have found that student-athletes are significantly more likely to go to college (Shifrer et al., 2015), score higher on standardized achievement tests (Lipscomb, 2007), earn higher

wages (Barron, Ewing, & Waddell, 2000), and are more likely to report having positive relationships with school personnel (Broh, 2002)"

This article shows how the element of school sports actively improves the success of students academically. When considering to take away school sports in our own home of Fairfax, the city found that that would actually be more harmful to school production than helpful to it.

Male High School Sport Participation and Intimate Partner Violence Perpetration in Adulthood

"Results show that sport
participation is associated with a reduced risk of perpetrating intimate partner violence in adulthood, which the authors interpret
as generally supportive of the deterrence hypothesis, the notion that playing sport promotes prosocial values, increases
supervision, and increases bonding to conventional institutions that lower the risk of engaging in violent behavior against women."

Several studies find that men are significantly less likely to assault their partners in adulthood. This is important to the argument in the fact that this links to several other things other than itself as domestic abuse is often linked to drug and alcohol abuse, as well as several other vices.

In this study, it was found that directly after college the participation of sports did not lead to economic gain. However, this can be explained by the fact that they were interviewed directly after college. The entire fact that the students graduated college shows that economic attainment became all the more possible for them in the next 10 years.

"It would be instructive,

for instance, to know the correlation between academic motivation and academic performance. Nonetheless, the work of Althouse (2007) helps to inform our conceptual model because of his attention to noncognitive variables."

In this article, the writer seeks to develop a conceptual model of how student athletes succeed in in Division 1 colleges. They found that although academic motivation among athletes is high, sports is sometimes an athlete's only option because of cognitive differences between them and others.

What Matters to You Matters: Natural Mentors and Self-valuation in School Sports

# data[].attributes.body
Using 42 retrospective interviews, this person attempted to find out what it means to a student for them to matter to a mentor in school. Natural mentoring led to connecting with non-kin, feeling important, and creating accountability to significant others. Mentorship and mattering were deeply gendered; in reinforcing attributes of athletic success and physical or mental growth, mentor relationships both contributed to and helped subvert the structure of traditional gender roles and provide insight into the ways men and women navigate the contested and gendered space of sport. Finally, these mentoring relationships demonstrated the intersectional nature of sport and its physicality by linking the body and soul. Mattering is the mechanism for social learning that facilitates these crucial relationships. The implications of these findings are discussed, along with
suggestions for future research.

Familismo as Risk and Protective Factors

Our results indicate that spending unstruc-
tured leisure time with peers and participating in non-school sports and non-school
clubs were associated with higher levels of community violence exposure, whereas
adhering to the cultural value of familismo was associated with lower levels of
violence exposure. Additionally, familismo moderated the positive association between violence exposure and depressive symptoms, but not posttraumatic stress disorder symptoms. Implications of these results are discussed
