While it is known that posture and cognition interact, the mechanism of this interaction is still uncertain. This interaction falls under the concept of sharing resources, implying that resources for processing are limited. Many studies were conducted to understand this interaction; however, none have investigated the attention network task (ANT) in two common static postures in young adults. The purpose of this study was to test whether a given posture benefits the components of attention without dual-task (DT) cost, when cognitive and postural tasks are not overly demanding. This study presents the results of 37 healthy young adults performing the ANT in two postural conditions. Our results showed ANT performance with faster reaction times while standing than sitting without cost on postural parameters. This study raises the question of the contribution of posture variations in daily life. Knowledge gained from this research may lead to a better understanding of the interaction between posture and attention. Using "simple" postures, we aim to show that posture might facilitate the achievement of the cognitive activity.
虽然已知姿势和认知相互作用,但这种相互作用的机制仍不确定。这种相互作用属于资源共享的概念,意味着处理资源是有限的。许多研究旨在理解这种相互作用;然而,目前还没有研究在年轻人中两种常见的静态姿势下进行注意力网络任务 (ANT)。本研究旨在测试在认知和姿势任务不过分要求的情况下,给定的姿势是否在没有双重任务 (DT) 成本的情况下有益于注意力的各个组成部分。本研究介绍了 37 名健康的年轻人在两种姿势条件下进行 ANT 的结果。我们的结果表明,站立时的反应时间比坐姿更快,而在不影响姿势参数的情况下,没有成本。这项研究提出了日常生活中姿势变化的贡献问题。从这项研究中获得的知识可能有助于更好地理解姿势和注意力之间的相互作用。通过使用“简单”的姿势,我们旨在表明姿势可能有助于完成认知活动。
