This study examined the social, educational, and career mobility effects of interscholastic athletic participation on subsamples of Hispanic girls and boys drawn from the High School and Beyond Study (U.S. Department of Education), a 1980 national, longitudinal survey of 14,366 sophomores enrolled in 1,015 public and private schools across the United States. These same students were then contacted for follow-up data collection in their senior year (1982), and again two years (1984) and four years (1986) later. The dependent variables under investigation included popularity, involvement in extracurricular activities, grades, achievement test scores, dropout rates, college attendance, degree progress made, job success and job aspirations.
