“…Consistent with this finding, we observed higher physical activity level in middle childhood among those students from higher-SES families in early childhood. Also consistent with the previous finding of insufficient parental involvement in low-SES families 31 , adolescents from higher-SES families in this study were found to perform more recreational activities with parents in early childhood. Although this study did not measure the frequency of sport and physical activities in early childhood, the finding of a positive correlation between recreational parent–child activities in preschool years and physical activity level in primary school years adds to the literature that physical activity habits can be nurtured through engagement in general play-based parent–child activities at early ages.…”

The graded association between family socioeconomic status (SES) and physical fitness is evident, but little is known about the mechanism underlying this association. This study investigated the role of early-life activities as mediators of the longitudinal relationship between early-life SES and health-related physical fitness in 168 adolescents (51.2% boys; final mean age: 12.4 years old). In Wave 1 (2011–12), their parents completed questionnaires about family socioeconomic status (SES), parent–child activities, and child screen time. In Wave 2 (2014–15), participants’ physical activity levels were assessed through parent proxy-reports. In Wave 3 (2018–19), a direct assessment of handgrip strength, standing long-jump, and 6-min walk test (6MWT) performance was conducted. After controlling for demographic factors, results of mediation analyses revealed that (a) Wave 1 SES predicted Wave 3 long-jump and 6MWT performance; (b) child physical activity level in Wave 2 mediated the relation between Wave 1 SES and standing long-jump performance in Wave 3; and (c) recreational parent–child activities and child screen time in wave 1 mediated the relation between Wave 1 SES and 6MWT performance in Wave 3. Our findings suggest that the type and frequency of early-life activities play a role in the graded association between childhood SES and physical fitness in adolescence.

“…This study has followed the guidelines of Rahi et al, 2019 , Li et al, 2020 to test the mediating relationship. According to Rahi, Majeed, and Alghizzawi, & Alnaser Feras (2019) , the indirect effect should be determined at the bias-corrected confidence interval (CI) with lower and upper value.…”

Highlights “e-Learning crack-up” perception has a significant impact on student’s psychological distress. Fear of academic year loss is the key responsible factor for psychological distress during COVID-19. Prediction relevance of psychological distress pointed out a good fit with R 2 = 0.996 and Q 2 = 0.656.

“…The relationship that children and parents possess is a profound means of restoring or promoting children’s development by providing a sense of security [ 1 – 8 ] and predicting future professional, academic and social achievements [ 9 – 12 ]. Likewise, a large volume of literature pronounced that the quality of the parent–child relationship defines children’s academic achievement [ 3 , 13 , 14 ], mental and emotional well-being [ 5 , 11 , 14 – 18 ], social competency [ 19 , 20 ], creativity [ 21 ], and behavioral problems [ 15 ].…”

Background In light of the recent policy reform in China, the present study aims to investigate the potential impact of family SES on the quality of the parent–child relationship (PCR) through the serial mediating role of participation in organized visual art activities in privately owned centers (VAA1) and parent-supervised visual art activities (VAA2) across genders. Method A cross-sectional study was conducted in anonymous province located in the southwestern part of China. A total of 1624 primary school students aged 7 to 14 years were recruited through a random sampling technique. Subsequently, anonymous survey responses were taken from all students. Multiple serial mediation analysis was performed by using AMOS 21.0 software to attain the primary aim of the study. Result According to the total sample model result, SES has a significant direct effect on the parent–child relationship (β = 0.47, p < 0.001), children’s participation in VAA1 (β = 0.197, p < 0.001) and VAA2 (β = 0.269, p < 0.001). Moreover, the mediation model result indicates that SES has a stronger indirect effect on the parent–child relationship through a mediating role of VAA1 (βgirl = 0.08, p < 0.01; βboys = 0.04, p < 0.01) for female than male samples. However, the mediating effect of VVA2 between SES and the parent–child relationship in the female (β = 0.08, p < 0.001) and male (β = 0.08, p < 0.01) models is equal, although female gender is highly significant. Ultimately, the serial mediation analysis result affirms that the serially mediating role of VAA1 and VAA2 between SES and the parent–child relationship was equal across genders (βboys = 0.001, p < 0.001; βgirls = 0.001, p < 0.001). Conclusion Unlike previous studies, this study’s multigroup model shows that both male and female children can equally restore their relationship with their parents by having substantial participation in both VAA1 and VAA2. Thus, parents ought to play the main role in facilitating and supporting children’s visual art activities without parenting that shows a gender bias.
