This longitudinal investigation delves into the influence of sports involvement on the scholastic engagement of both left-behind and migrant children within China. The findings elucidate a notable discrepancy in scholastic engagement levels, with left-behind children (M=4.34) and migrant children (M=5.65) exhibiting markedly lower levels compared to their urban counterparts (M=6.02). Furthermore, the results underscore a significant positive correlation between participation in sports activities and scholastic engagement among these demographic groups. The analysis further reveals that interpersonal competencies serve as a partially mediating factor in this relationship. Additionally, the study identifies various individual and familial factors that exert significant influence on scholastic engagement levels. This research underscores the constructive impact of sports involvement on scholastic engagement and accentuates the importance of interpersonal skills. At a societal level, educational institutions, communities, and administrative bodies should endeavour to enhance the accessibility and inclusivity of diverse sporting opportunities, while integrating public sports resources more comprehensively into the social fabric. On a national policy level, the establishment of a sports participation network that fosters collaboration among homes, schools, and communities emerges as a promising avenue for furthering these objectives.

The advent of cinema brought with it its use as a propaganda device with which to transmit ideals and doctrines. As a result, newsreels and cinema documentaries were born with the aim of showing the «most relevant» news of the country and abroad, the former with a shorter duration. In this study, the Spanish NO-DO and «Sucesos Argentinos» are used as primary sources to interpret the images and imaginaries that were projected between 1943 and 1955 on female physical culture. The intention is to understand the official discourse of both political regimes on what Argentinean and Spanish society should be like, especially by questioning those meanings about women. In total, 69 issues of NO-DO and 14 editions of «Sucesos Argentinos» have been found which aim to show female physical culture in this period. The female physical culture shown in both newsreels was aimed at strengthening women’s bodies so that they could carry out their «natural functions» (mother, wife, housewife), as well as highlighting their «inferiority» in relation to men through lower impact activities and the homogenization of bodies through clothing, and the performance of the same exercises in synchrony. And all this in countries with different regimes, but which, in the end, coincided.
