Abstract | Physical activity (PA) has been demonstrated to have beneficial effects on children's attention and academic performance. This study examined the acute effects of a 25-min afternoon PA class on attentional performance in Chinese elementary school children. One hundred and five children were randomly assigned into experimental group or control group. The experimental group took a 25- minute PA class in the afternoon, while the control group was given a lecture on exercise-related topics during the same time. Both groups were tested attentional performance before and immediately after the PA class or lecture using the d2-Test of Attention. The results showed children's attentional performance improved significantly following a 25-minute afternoon PA class, but such improvement was no greater than following a lecture on a fresh topic, and did not differ between genders. Schools might consider implementing afternoon PA classes as a means of promoting children's health while without compromising attentional performance. (Autor). |
