Physical activity and academic performance are positively associated, but the direction of the
association is poorly understood. This longitudinal study examined the direction and magnitude of the
associations between leisure-time physical activity and academic performance throughout adolescence
and young adulthood. The participants were Finnish twins (from 2,859 to 4,190 individuals/study wave)
and their families. In a cross-lagged path model, higher academic performance at ages 12, 14 and 17
predicted higher leisure-time physical activity at subsequent time-points (standardized path coefficient
at age 14: 0.07 (p<0.001), age 17: 0.12 (p<0.001) and age 24: 0.06 (p<0.05)), whereas physical
activity did not predict future academic performance. A cross-lagged model of co-twin differences
suggested that academic performance and subsequent physical activity were not associated due to
the environmental factors shared by co-twins. Our findings suggest that better academic performance
in adolescence modestly predicts more frequent leisure-time physical activity in late adolescence and
young adulthood.
