Abstract
Childhood internalizing disorders, such as anxiety and depression, have the potential to impact a child’s social and behavioral functioning well into adulthood. The current study used cross-sectional data collected with the Achenbach System of Empirically Based Assessment (ASEBA) Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL) to investigate the relationship between childhood sports involvement and rates of internalizing symptoms in children ages 6 to 18 years old. Both the number of sports in which a child participates and the amount of time that they spend participating in those sports were examined in relation to both their age and gender.
