Abstract
Der positive Einfluss sportlicher (Wettkampf-)Aktivität auf den Arbeitsmarkterfolg beispielsweise in Form höherer Entlohnung wurde bereits mehrfach nachgewiesen. In diesem Beitrag wird mit Daten des Sozioökonomischen Panels (SOEP) analysiert, ob die sportliche (Wettkampf-)Aktivität zu einer höheren kognitiven Leistungsfähigkeit führt und somit die größeren Erfolge auf dem Arbeitsmarkt sachlich gerechtfertigt sind. Es zeigt sich, dass sportlich aktivere Menschen eine schnellere mentale Verarbeitungsgeschwindigkeit erreichen und bei umfangreicheren kognitiven Tests im Vergleich zu Nichtsportlern bessere Leistungen erbringen. Die Teilnahme an sportlichen Wettkämpfen und vielseitige Betätigungen erhöhen die kognitive Leistungsfähigkeit weiter.
