Description
Hao Lin and four co-authors pool studies on what moves teenagers to be active. Their meta-analysis tests social support as the driver. Self-confidence, called self-efficacy, may carry part of that push. Fifty-six studies with over forty-seven thousand teens fed the pool. The text is dated 2023, though the catalog lists 2024.
Overall support linked to activity at a modest strength. Family, peer, and general support each helped directly. School support, by contrast, showed no clear direct tie. Confidence carried part of every working support type's effect. Family support's strength shifted with gender and income. Programs that coach confidence may stretch every support dollar further.
