Health and student success outcomes are often thought to be associated with campus recreation participation. Thus, decision makers at the university level are interested in the relationship between campus recreation participation, grade point average (GPA), and student engagement. Previous research has called for a clearer understanding of how campus recreation is meaningful for first-year university students and its potential influences on GPA. This study explored the influence of first-year students' campus recreation participation, GPA, and facets of student engagement. First-year university students (N = 171) were surveyed. Demographic characteristics, GPA, and level of engagement on five scales were assessed. Results showed that GPA positively influenced those who participated in campus recreation on four facets of engagement. Results may help academic administrators to target efforts toward making the transition from high school to university easier. Promoting campus recreation participation may be effective for strengthening students' level of engagement and result in positive success outcomes.

校园娱乐参与平均成绩与一年级学生参与之间关系的调节作用:一项探索性研究

健康和学生的成功成果通常被认为与校园娱乐活动的参与有关。因此,大学一级的决策者对校园娱乐参与,平均绩点(GPA)和学生参与之间的关系感兴趣。先前的研究要求对校园娱乐对一年级大学生的意义及其对GPA的潜在影响有更清晰的了解。这项研究探讨了一年级学生的校园娱乐参与,GPA和学生参与度的影响。对一年级大学生(N = 171)进行了调查。在五个量表上评估了人口统计学特征,GPA和参与程度。结果表明,GPA对参与校园娱乐活动的参与者有四个方面的积极影响。结果可能有助于学术管理人员针对使从高中过渡到大学更容易的目标。促进校园娱乐活动的参与可能会有效地增强学生的参与水平,并取得积极的成功成果。
