The impact of Sports Social Support, Sports Behavior, and Impulsive Personality on Academic Adaptation in Adolescents

Abstract Background Currently, Chinese teenagers are facing serious academic adaptation problems, which have affected their physical and mental health development. Objective To explore the effects of exercise behavior, social support for exercise, and impulsive personality on academic adaptation in adolescents, and to provide theoretical and practical references for adolescents to overcome academic adaptation barriers and improve academic performance. Method Adolescents in Chongqing, China were selected as the survey subjects, and relevant data was obtained through a self-report questionnaire. SPSS 21.0 and AMOS 19.0 statistical analysis software were used to process and analyze the data. Result Engaging in high contact - high-attack sports, participating in school sports teams, duration of each exercise, and impulsive personality can all induce academic adaptation problems in adolescents, while participating in sports cannot effectively reduce the occurrence of academic adaptation problems; Parental support has a significant positive effect on adolescent academic adaptation problems, but impulsive personality is a key factor in inducing academic adaptation problems. Conclusion Impulsive personality is a key factor affecting academic adaptation problems. Adolescents may seek stimulation through high exposure and aggressive exercise, while forgetting the frustration of academic maladaptation, making exercise participation a means of reducing academic adaptation obstacles ineffective.
