Regular Sports Practice And Its Impact On Mental Health And Academic Performance Among Algerian Students In Bem Classes

Résumé: In adolescents, regular physical activity increases self-esteem and the perception of physical competence, two variables that make it possible to cope with daily stress (Ortega & al, 2008). It has been shown that in schools, increasing theoretical educational time at the expense of physical education time would harm academic results (Bekhechi K & Khiat B, 2019). The analysis of a questionnaire that was distributed to 120 parents of students at the 4th grade and who are concerned by the examination of the BEM, belonging to the West Algiers region, reveals that indeed regular sports practice preserves mental health, improves the emotional state of young people; and that physically active students had higher academic performance than non-active students, which was demonstrated by the results of the BEM.
