[Purpose] The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of taekwondo training on cognitive function and academic self-efficacy in children. [Subjects and Methods] Thirty-five children participated in the study. Seventeen children were randomly selected to undergo taekwondo training for 16 weeks (5 times per week). As controls, 18 children received no training. Cognitive function and academic self-efficacy were measured using the Stroop Color and Word Test (Word, Color, and Color-Word) and academic self-efficacy scale (Self-confidence, Self-regulatory Efficacy, and Task Difficulty Preference), respectively. [Results] In the taekwondo group, the Color-Word and Self-confidence scores increased significantly after intervention as compared to those before intervention. [Conclusion] It is suggested that regular taekwondo training may be effective for enhancing cognitive function and academic self-efficacy in growing children.
[目的]本研究旨在探讨跆拳道训练对儿童认知功能和学业自我效能感的影响。[对象与方法]35名儿童参与了本研究。随机选取17名儿童进行为期16周（每周5次）的跆拳道训练。作为对照，18名儿童未接受训练。分别使用斯特鲁普颜色和文字测验（文字、颜色和颜色-文字）和学业自我效能感量表（自信心、自我调节效能感和任务难度偏好）测量认知功能和学业自我效能感。[结果]在跆拳道组中，与干预前相比，干预后颜色-文字和自信心得分显著提高。[结论]建议定期进行跆拳道训练可能对增强成长中儿童的认知功能和学业自我效能感有效。
