Research demonstrates that acute exercise can enhance retrospective episodic memory performance. However, limited research has examined the effects of acute exercise on prospective memory, and no studies have examined the effects of exercise on false memory performance. This study examined the potential effects of acute exercise on prospective memory and false memory performance. A between-group randomized controlled trial was employed, with participants (college students; M = 20 years) randomized into an exercise group (15-minute acute bout of treadmill walking; N = 25) or a control group (15 minutes of sitting; N = 26). Prospective memory was assessed from two laboratory and two naturalistic assessments outside the lab. False memory was assessed using a word-list trial. There were no statistically significant differences in prospective memory based on group allocation (F = 1.17; P = 0.32; η= 0.06). However, the control group recalled more false words and had a higher rate of false memory recognition (F = 3.15; P = 0.01; η= 0.26). These findings indicate that acute moderate-intensity aerobic exercise is not associated with prospective memory performance but provides some suggestive evidence that acute exercise may reduce the rate of false memories.
研究表明，急性运动可以提高情景记忆的回溯表现。然而，针对急性运动对前瞻记忆影响的研究有限，且尚无研究探讨运动对错误记忆表现的影响。本研究考察了急性运动对前瞻记忆和错误记忆表现的潜在影响。采用组间随机对照试验，将参与者（大学生；平均年龄20岁）随机分为运动组（进行15分钟的跑步机快走；N = 25）或对照组（静坐15分钟；N = 26）。通过两项实验室评估和两项实验室外的自然评估来测定前瞻记忆。使用单词列表试验评估错误记忆。基于分组情况，前瞻记忆没有统计学上的显著差异（F = 1.17；P = 0.32；η = 0.06）。然而，对照组回忆出更多错误单词，且错误记忆识别率更高（F = 3.15；P = 0.01；η = 0.26）。这些发现表明，急性中等强度有氧运动与前瞻记忆表现无关，但提供了一些提示性证据，表明急性运动可能会降低错误记忆的发生率。
