This study aimed to examine the relationships between sports participation, optimism/pessimism, self-regulation, and coronavirus-related stress in Korean adolescents during the pandemic situation. Specifically, we attempted to offer valuable information that could help to alleviate coronavirus-related stress in adolescents by promoting participation in sports and the development of optimism and self-regulation. To achieve this aim, we conducted an online survey of 836 Korean adolescents in the pilot and main studies. Confirmatory factor, frequency, path, reliability, descriptive statistical, and multimedia analyses were performed. Our findings indicated several differences for each variable according to demographic characteristics. Sports participation exerted a positive effect on optimism ( p &lt; 0.001) and self-regulation ( p &lt; 0.01) and negative effects on coronavirus-related stress ( p &lt; 0.05) and pessimism ( p &lt; 0.001). In addition, optimism exerted a positive effect on self-regulation ( p &lt; 0.001) and a negative effect on coronavirus-related stress ( p &lt; 0.001), while pessimism exerted a negative effect on self-regulation ( p &lt; 0.01) and a positive effect on coronavirus-related stress ( p &lt; 0.001). Further analysis indicated that self-regulation had a negative effect on coronavirus-related stress ( p &lt; 0.05). These findings highlight the need for youth educational institutions to encourage adolescents to participate in sports and for organizing bodies to suggest various policies and provide education that can assist them in properly coping with and overcoming coronavirus-related stress by strengthening their optimistic attitude and self-regulation ability.
