“…These findings are aligned with previous literature that has shown that as the complexity of the task increases, in this case, a decrease in the BOS, there is an increase in postural sway [19,20,22]. However, we did not find that RT was faster when standing on two legs compared to one leg.…”

“…Our hypotheses were that (1) RT would be shorter and COP measures would indicate less sway when the focus of attention was on RT; (2) RT would be shorter and COP measures would indicate less sway when standing on two legs compared to one leg; (3) RT would be shorter and COP measures would indicate less sway for SRT compared to CRT tasks. The findings from hypotheses two [18][19][20][21] and three [22,23] were expected as some studies have found similar results; therefore, replicating these findings would fortify the results for the first hypothesis.…”

“…Unpublished data showed that obese children not only displayed less accurate performance in a tracking task than their healthy weight peers, they also experienced difficulties with processing information and decision‐making during reaction time tasks. They had a significantly higher reaction time than the healthy weight children . Given that these fine motor tasks only involved limited movement of the hand and, or, arm(s), the lower motor competence in obese children cannot solely be explained from a mechanical perspective.…”

“…No entan-to, o grupo de participantes com um nível mais elevado de IMC produziu um TRSimples significativamente mais longo, quando considerados os resultados em intervalos modais. Resultado semelhante foi reportado por Gentier et al (2013), em um estudo comparativo do desempenho em tarefas de tempo de reação simples e de escolha entre crianças obesas e de peso saudável, os autores concluíram que as crianças obesas foram mais lentas em funções executivas e de tomada de decisão, a fim de planejar e controlar o movimento. Kvelde et al (2010) buscaram investigar por que pessoas deprimidas são mais propensas a cair, explorando a relação entre os sintomas depressivos autorrelatados e desempenho em testes cognitivos, sendo que os resultados sugerem que o humor deprimido autorelatado foi relacionado ao desempenho reduzido em testes cognitivos.…”
