AB  - Children who are overweight and obese display lower physical activity levels than 
      normal weight peers. Measures of weight status, perceived motor competence, and 
      motor skill performance have been identified as potential correlates explaining 
      this discrepancy. 1881 children (955 males; 926 females; 9.9 years) were assessed 
      as part of the Physical Health Activity Study Team project. The age, habitual 
      physical activity participation (PAP), body mass index (BMI), socioeconomic 
      status (SES), motor performance (MP), and perceived athletic competence (PAC) of 
      each child included were assessed. Gender-specific linear regression analyses 
      (main effects model) were conducted to identify the percent variance in PAP 
      explained by the following variables: BMI, MP, and PAC. For males, 18.3% of the 
      variance in PAP was explained by BMI, MP, and PAC. PAC explained 17% of the 
      variance, while MP, BMI, and SES only accounted for 0.6%, 0.7%, and 0.5%, 
      respectively. PAC explained 17.5% of PAP variance in females; MP explained 0.8%. 
      BMI, SES, and chronological age were not significant correlates of PAP in girls. 
      An established repertoire of motor skill performance has been seen as a vehicle 
      to PAP in children; however, this study indicates that PAC should not be 
      overlooked in intervention strategies to promote increased PAP.
