“…Moderate workload exercise has the potential to improve cognitive performance [7][8][9][10][11][12][13], by increasing central nervous activation and sensory sensitivity [17]. In order to assess the effect of both associative and dissociative sessions on central nervous activation we used the critical licker fusion (CFF) frequency test.…”

SummaryThe purpose of the present study was to experimentally assess the effect of cognitive strategies of association and dissociation while running on central nervous activation. A total of 30 long distance runners volunteered for the study. The study protocol consisted on three sessions (scheduled in three different days): (1) maximal incremental treadmill test, (2) associative task session, and (3) dissociative task session. The order of sessions 2 and 3 was counterbalanced. During sessions 2 and 3, participants performed a 55 min treadmill run at moderate intensity. Both, associative and dissociative tasks responses were monitoring and recording in real time through dynamic measure tools. Consequently, was possible to have an objective control of the attentional. Results showed a positive session (exercise+attentional task) effect for central nervous activation. The benefi ts of aerobic exercise at moderate intensity for the performance of self-regulation cognitive tasks are highlighted. The used methodology is proposed as a valid and dynamic option to study cognitions while running in order to overcome the retrospective approach.

“…Recent studies provide evidence that an acute bout of moderate aerobic exercise improves cognitive performance in a Stroop tasks. [6][7][8]15 Kashihara et al, 2009 10 pointed out the reasons for improved cognitive function by the exercise seem to be not only the facilitated regional cerebral blood flow and neurotransmitters in the central nervous system (CNS) but also psychological factors. However, the psycho-physiological mechanism causing inverted U relationship between incremental exercise and cognitive performance remains unclear.…”

Introduction:A beneficial influence of exercise on cognitive and brain functions has been established. Exercise is drawing increasing research attention for improving neurocognitive functions. Aim: The aim of the present study is to examine the effect of step up exercise on mental attention with strop test in Bengali male college students. Methodology: Twenty eight (28) apparently healthy male sedentary college students from the same socio-economic background, having mean age of 22.4 ± 1.02 years, body height of 165.3 ± 6.34 cm and body weight of 55.5 ± 9.01 kg were recruited for the present study on the basis of random sampling from the undergraduate students of the NS Mahavidyalaya of Tripura. A computer based modified 'Stroop color word' test based on the original Stroop test (Stroop, 1935) to identify cognitive performance. After completion of stroop test in resting sitting condition participants were asked to complete Queen College Step Test to measure VO 2 max. After completion of 3 mins step up exercise a recovery time of 5-15 seconds were taken for VO 2 measurement and immediately after taking recovery pulse participants were asked to perform stroop III subtask to see the effect of exercise on the cognitive performance of the college students of Tripura. Results: The mean VO 2 max to be found 49.1 ± 6.25 ml.kg -1 .min -1 . The mean time to complete Stroop sub task Tasks III was found 194.3 (±46.34) sec. After 3 minutes step-up exercise it has been shown that the mean stroop III score was improved from 194.3 (±46.34) to 160.4 (± 31.42) sec. Conclusion: It is observed in the present study that the speed of performance (i.e., stoop tasks) is improved after short term moderate exercise.

Introduction: Determination of hand skill rate is thought to be important for the functional evaluation of nervous system. Therefore, hand skill performance monitoring could be a reliable measure for the effect of audio-visual medical teaching on central nervous system. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of mental activity on the hand skill rate performance ability following one hour audio-visual medical teaching. Methods: Participants were 34 healthy screened right handed volunteers (19 female, 15 male, age between 18 -22 years). Hand skill rate performance time was assessed by Annett's peg moving task. Each participant repeated the task five times in a different time, before and after the lecture. Data were analyzed by statistical software package SPSS. Statistical significance level of p < 0.05 was considered to be significant. Results: Hand skill rate performance time value was not associated with the gender difference. Based on this result, statistical evaluation was performed without gender discrimination (n = 34). When the hand skill rate performance times of each hand were compared with the values obtained before and after lecture, it was found that hand skill rate performance times for both right and left hands were decreased in all subjects after the lecture. Conclusions: This study may suggest that attending an audio-visual medical teaching lecture and performing Annett's peg moving test may both cause activation in the common areas of nervous system. This activation may lead a state of alertness on the students, which in turn affects hand skill rate performance time in a positive manner. Therefore, we may suggest placing laboratory sessions in the curriculum at least one hour following a theoretical lecture since this may lead to increasing the success and the practicability of the sessions.
