Competence. Academic achievement High schools The purpose of this study was to investigate relationships between physical activity, body mass index (BMI), socioeconomic status and academic achievement. The data were collected from the full population of form four student of Klang High School in District Of Klang Selangor, Malaysia in 201 l.(n=274)Specifically physical activity, BMI and socioeconomic status were compared to mathematics scores on the form four students of Klang High School students. Physical Education teachers annually receive training in anthropometry and data entry measurement prior to data collection.For the purpose of this study, school record data that include matemahtical scores from System Analysis for Examination in Malaysia and BMI information for students were used. This study examined the physical activity level measured by International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) short form and the data for socioeconomic status was gathered from Student Information System (SMM) of Klang High School. Multiple regression and multiple correlations was used to analyzed the data. Physical activity had a negative relationship with academic achievement. The multiple regression and multiple correlation for physical activity, indicate that physical activity levels (0.075) was not significant predictor of academic achievement (p <0.001). BMI and socioeconomic status had a positive relationship with academic achievement. The multiple regression and multiple correlation for academic achievement, indicate, the scores are positively correlated with both 'body mass index, 0.006 (p< 0.01) and socioeconomic status, 0.002(p <0.01). The study suggests that the relationship between physical activity and academic achievement is weak. 2011 Thesis https://ir.uitm.edu.my/id/eprint/62550/ https://ir.uitm.edu.my/id/eprint/62550/1/62550.pdf text en public masters Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM) Faculty of Sport Science and Recreation Yen, Mustafa
