Abstract

Purpose: Given that previous research on relative age effects (RAEs) has only focused on organized sport, the aim of this exploratory study was to examine whether this phenomenon also existed among self-organized practitioners. In relation to that, a second aim was to know whether self-organized sport practices could be favored by late-born practitioners as a result of a strategic adaptation. Method(s): Representative sub-samples of 474 soccer players, 363 basketball players, 2,536 swimmers, 1,788 strength training practitioners, 1,873 pétanque players, 973 table tennis players and 2,136 runners were analyzed. Results: The results did not show any significant RAEs, including in sport practices that are sensitive to this phenomenon such as soccer or basketball. The results did not show any significant overrepresentation of late-born people either. Conclusion: This study suggests that self-organized sport practices are not impacted by the RAEs. This finding is interesting because self-organized sport practice is the most important one in numbers.

相对年龄效应与成年人自我组织的体育锻炼。

目的：鉴于以往关于相对年龄效应（RAEs）的研究只集中在有组织的体育运动中，本探索性研究的目的是考察自组织从业者中是否也存在这种现象。与此相关的第二个目的是，了解自组织体育实践是否会因战略适应而受到晚出生从业者的青睐。研究方法对 474 名足球运动员、363 名篮球运动员、2,536 名游泳运动员、1,788 名力量训练练习者、1,873 名壁球运动员、973 名乒乓球运动员和 2,136 名跑步运动员的代表性子样本进行了分析。结果显示结果显示，包括足球或篮球等对这一现象敏感的运动项目在内，都没有出现明显的 RAE。结果也未显示晚出生者的比例明显偏高。结论这项研究表明，自发组织的体育活动并没有受到 RAE 的影响。这一发现很有意思，因为自发组织的体育锻炼在人数上是最重要的。

期刊介绍： Research Quarterly for Exercise and Sport publishes research in the art and science of human movement that contributes significantly to the knowledge base of the field as new information, reviews, substantiation or contradiction of previous findings, development of theory, or as application of new or improved techniques. The goals of RQES are to provide a scholarly outlet for knowledge that: (a) contributes to the study of human movement, particularly its cross-disciplinary and interdisciplinary nature; (b) impacts theory and practice regarding human movement; (c) stimulates research about human movement; and (d) provides theoretical reviews and tutorials related to the study of human movement. The editorial board, associate editors, and external reviewers assist the editor-in-chief. Qualified reviewers in the appropriate subdisciplines review manuscripts deemed suitable. Authors are usually advised of the decision on their papers within 75–90 days.
