Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Studies have shown that individuals from lower SES backgrounds are more likely to live in unsafe neighborhoods with fewer recreational opportunities, making it difficult for them to engage in physical activity. Low self-efficacy and lack of motivation can affect exercise behavior across all SES levels, while disinterest in sports is not specifically linked to SES.
