A growing body of research has detailed the beneficial relation of chronic participation in--and acute responses to--physical activity on aspects of cognition that underlie scholastic achievement. Here, we review the relevant neuroelectric findings on this beneficial relation in children, providing support for the influence of physical activity on specific cognitive processes that comprise academic performance.
A review of studies examining physical activity and neuroelectric concomitants of cognition during childhood is described. When applicable, research involving adult populations is also described to better inform on this relationship in children.
Collectively, the data support a beneficial relation of chronic and acute participation in physical activity to brain health and cognition. The results suggest more effective allocation of cognitive processes involved in stimulus engagement and action monitoring during tasks requiring variable amounts of cognitive control in children.
Physical activity may influence brain health and cognition in children, leading to enhanced scholastic performance and greater overall effective functioning across the lifespan.
越来越多的研究详细描述了慢性参与和急性反应身体活动与学业成就相关认知方面的有益关系。在这里,我们回顾了儿童中这一有益关系的相关神经电发现,为身体活动对构成学业表现的特定认知过程的影响提供了支持。
描述了审查研究身体活动和神经电认知伴随物在儿童期间的描述。在适用的情况下,还描述了涉及成年人群体的研究,以更好地了解儿童中的这种关系。
总的来说,数据支持慢性和急性参与身体活动与大脑健康和认知之间的有益关系。结果表明,在需要不同程度认知控制的任务中,与刺激参与和动作监测相关的认知过程的分配更加有效。
身体活动可能会影响儿童的大脑健康和认知,从而提高学业成绩,并在整个生命周期中提高整体有效功能。
