Abstract
Exercise induced Cognitive Function is an area needed in competitive fast ball sports that has stimulated interests of researchers due to its promising applicability in the field. It was noticed that although previous studies have suggested a role of exercise in facilitating cognitive performance, little is known regarding how to maximize these benefits. The study is undertaken to understand the effects of two types of aerobic training i.e., High Intensity Interval Exercise (HIIE) and Moderate Intensity Continuous Exercise (MCE) on executive function. For the assessment of cognition, after a four-week protocol, the Vienna Test System, a computerized assessment tool developed by Schuhfried GmbH (Moedling, Austria) is used for a defined universe of selected 20 athletes from various fast ball sports such as cricket, football, handball and volleyball. Statistical Analysis of Repeated Measured ANOVA along with post hoc test was done using SPSS version 21. Level of significance was kept at 5% with 95% study power. Collectively three variables, namely Sum of correct reactions, Sum of incorrect reactions and Sum of incorrect non-reactions; revealed improvement in attention, inhibitory function as well as executive function (p < 0.05). For fast ball athletes, the present study is suggestive of including MCE or HIIE programme in their training for 3 sessions/week; in order to optimize the improvement in cognitive level. The study can potentially guide every sports medicine team member, in order to develop an effective exercise protocol to improve the physiological as well as psychological capabilities of the athletes.
期刊介绍:
Cognitive Neurodynamics provides a unique forum of communication and cooperation for scientists and engineers working in the field of cognitive neurodynamics, intelligent science and applications, bridging the gap between theory and application, without any preference for pure theoretical, experimental or computational models.
The emphasis is to publish original models of cognitive neurodynamics, novel computational theories and experimental results. In particular, intelligent science inspired by cognitive neuroscience and neurodynamics is also very welcome.
The scope of Cognitive Neurodynamics covers cognitive neuroscience, neural computation based on dynamics, computer science, intelligent science as well as their interdisciplinary applications in the natural and engineering sciences. Papers that are appropriate for non-specialist readers are encouraged.
1. There is no page limit for manuscripts submitted to Cognitive Neurodynamics. Research papers should clearly represent an important advance of especially broad interest to researchers and technologists in neuroscience, biophysics, BCI, neural computer and intelligent robotics.
2. Cognitive Neurodynamics also welcomes brief communications: short papers reporting results that are of genuinely broad interest but that for one reason and another do not make a sufficiently complete story to justify a full article publication. Brief Communications should consist of approximately four manuscript pages.
3. Cognitive Neurodynamics publishes review articles in which a specific field is reviewed through an exhaustive literature survey. There are no restrictions on the number of pages. Review articles are usually invited, but submitted reviews will also be considered.
