Multilevel analyses tested the association between CRF or MF and cognitive outcomes while accounting for the influence of the other fitness variable and relevant demographic factors. Results: CRF predicted response accuracy during incongruent flanker trials, the condition requiring greater inhibition. For the working memory task, CRF predicted greater target accuracy and greater d' scores on the 1-back task, requiring lesser amounts of working memory. In the 2-back task, which requires greater amounts of working memory, CRF also predicted greater target and non-target accuracy and d' scores. Comparatively, MF did not predict any cognitive outcomes after adjustment for CRF. Conclusion: CRF was selectively related to better performance during task conditions that require greater amounts of inhibition and working memory. This finding suggests that CRF, but not MF, may benefit cognitive control in older adolescents. This selective influence of CRF on older adolescents’ cognition highlights the value of aerobic physical activity.]]> Wed 26 Oct 2022 14:53:31 AEDT ]]> Review of High-Intensity Interval Training for Cognitive and Mental Health in Youth https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:46689 Tue 29 Nov 2022 09:35:58 AEDT ]]> A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of the Benefits of School-Based, Peer-Led Interventions for Leaders https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:50437 Tue 25 Jul 2023 19:15:59 AEST ]]> Feasibility and preliminary efficacy of a teacher-facilitated high-intensity interval training intervention for older adolescents https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:35674 Tue 22 Oct 2019 11:50:11 AEDT ]]> Mediating effects of sleep on mental health in older adolescents: Findings from the Burn 2 Learn randomized controlled trial. https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:54327 Tue 20 Feb 2024 15:58:32 AEDT ]]> Effect of a Time-Efficient Physical Activity Intervention on Senior School Students' On-Task Behaviour and Subjective Vitality: the 'Burn 2 Learn' Cluster Randomised Controlled Trial https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:41183 Tue 05 Sep 2023 14:58:56 AEST ]]> Time-efficient intervention to improve older adolescents' cardiorespiratory fitness: findings from the ‘Burn 2 Learn’ cluster randomised controlled trial https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:48041 Thu 16 Feb 2023 13:59:00 AEDT ]]> Cardiorespiratory fitness, muscular fitness and mental health in older adolescents: a multi-level cross-sectional analysis https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:37626 Thu 11 Apr 2024 09:51:35 AEST ]]> Pilot randomized controlled trial of a game-based intervention for teaching basketball in Chinese primary school physical education https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:55272 Thu 09 May 2024 11:53:35 AEST ]]> Process Evaluation of a School-Based High-Intensity Interval Training Program for Older Adolescents: The Burn 2 Learn Cluster Randomised Controlled Trial https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:42182 Fri 19 Aug 2022 09:43:19 AEST ]]> Feasibility of a school-based physical activity intervention for adolescents with disability https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:39694 Fri 17 Jun 2022 16:14:05 AEST ]]> Feasibility of test administration and preliminary findings for cognitive control in the Burn 2 learn pilot randomised controlled trial https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:47213 Fri 16 Dec 2022 10:09:24 AEDT ]]>
