Achievement = spring grade in PE year 7 (Year7) and final grade in PE year 9 (Final), SEinPE = PE-specific self-efficacy, Apt.part = aptitude to participate, GSE = general school self-efficacy, Phys = physical functional skills, Socio-cogn. = socio-cognitive functional skills, timepoint 1, year 7 (T1) and timepoint 2, year 9 (T2); **p < 0.01, *p < 0.05.
