    The objective of this study was to determine the predictive value of different measures of physical literacy (PL) on cardio- metabolic risk in adolescents with abdominal obesity. Method. A cross-sectional, descriptive, and analytical study was con- ducted with a sample of 51 abdominal obesity male adolescents aged 11–15 years. Cardiometabolic risk was estimated using the MetS-score, based on anthropometric, biochemical, and blood pressure data. LASSO regression models were applied to identify the predictive value of PL measures on cardiometabolic risk outcomes. Results. The study findings showed that the physical dimension of PL has measures that moderately predict (f2=0.17), 14.5% of the variance in cardiometabolic risk through the MetS-score. In addition, PL measures were selected to explain other components of cardiometabolic risk, with a large effect on waist circumference and systolic and diastolic blood pressure (f2=3.379; f2=0.771; f2=0.472, respectively). Conclusion. The results of this study show that the physical dimension of PL can predict MetS-scores in abdominal obesity adolescents. Furthermore, it was identified that the psychological and cognitive dimensions of PL, although they do not directly predict the MetS-score, play a relevant protective role in blood pressure and, to a lesser extent, in waist circumference.

    This study was aimed to determine the impact of the level of physical activity and eating habits in the academic performance of an adolescent school population in Chile. The study has a descriptive cross-cutting design. The sample was formed by 2116 students (60.8% women and 39.2% men), later it was stratified according to level of physical activity and eating habit. Habits were determined by means of a 24-hour reminder, the level of physical activity by means of the International Physical Activity Questionnaire, and the general school averages, mathematics and language, as well as standardized tests were considered. For the analysis of data, descriptive and inferential statistics were used. The results indicated that having a high level of physical activity and having the main meals per day is associated with a better school performance, highlighting the importance of promoting these habits among the school community.
