The objective was to investigate the association between creativity and memory with cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF; i.e., CFR classification and V˙O); lifestyle parameters (i.e., physical activity (PA), sleep duration, screen time (ST), and food habits); and anthropometric measures (i.e., body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC)) among Chilean schoolchildren. A total of 248 schoolchildren (137 boys, 111 girls, 11.80 ± 1.17 and 11.58 ± 1.09 years, respectively) participated in the cross-sectional study. Creativity, memory, concentration, and selective attention and lifestyle (PA, ST, sleep duration, and Mediterranean diet (MD) adherence) were measured using a standard questionnaire. CRF (measured by the 20 m shuttle run test and expressed as maximum oxygen consumption (V˙O) and anthropometric measures (BMI and WC) were also included. Creativity showed a positive association with V˙O (mL/kg/min) (β; 0.209, 95% CI; 0.02-0.40, = < 0.05) and MD Adherence (score) (β; 0.206, 95% CI; 0.01; 0.74, = < 0.05). Long-term memory reported a positive association with CRF (β; 1.076, 95% CI; 0.02-2.13, = < 0.05). An increase in CRF levels, together with healthy food habits and normal nutritional status, should be a target for community- and school-based interventions to promote cognitive development in creativity and memory among schoolchildren.
目的在于研究智利儿童的创造力和记忆力与心肺适能(CRF;即 CFR 分类和 V˙O)、生活方式参数(即体力活动(PA)、睡眠时长、屏幕时间(ST)和饮食习惯)以及人体测量学指标(即体重指数(BMI)、腰围(WC))之间的关联。共有 248 名儿童(男 137 名,女 111 名,年龄分别为 11.80±1.17 岁和 11.58±1.09 岁)参与了这项横断面研究。创造力、记忆力、注意力和选择性注意力以及生活方式(PA、ST、睡眠时长和地中海饮食(MD)依从性)通过标准问卷进行测量。CRF(通过 20 米穿梭跑测试测量,用最大摄氧量(V˙O)表示)和人体测量学指标(BMI 和 WC)也包括在内。创造力与 V˙O(mL/kg/min)呈正相关(β;0.209,95%CI;0.02-0.40, = < 0.05)和 MD 依从性(评分)(β;0.206,95%CI;0.01;0.74, = < 0.05)。长期记忆与 CRF 呈正相关(β;1.076,95%CI;0.02-2.13, = < 0.05)。提高 CRF 水平,以及健康的饮食习惯和正常的营养状况,应该成为社区和学校为促进儿童创造力和记忆力发展而开展的干预措施的目标。
