Physical activity and public health: updated recommendation for adults from the American College of Sports Medicine and the American Heart Association. (2007, background): “This additional evidence includes compelling new data on women (21,39,40), and more conclusive evidence on stroke (77), some cancers (69), and cognitive function (78,83).”

Positive effect of acute mild exercise on executive function via arousal-related prefrontal activations: An fNIRS study (2014, background): “From a practical perspective, mild exercise might bemore attractive to both young and old adults who have a sedentary lifestyle, which is known to increase the risk of cognitive decline and neurological diseases (Rovio et al., 2005; Weuve et al., 2004).”
Epidemiologic studies of modifiable factors associated with cognition and dementia: systematic review and meta-analysis (2014, background): “Significant findings were obtained by other recent cohort [132-145,147,148,150-154,156-158] and cross-sectional studies [100,146,149].”
Physical activity and risk of neurodegenerative disease: a systematic review of prospective evidence (2008, methodology): “Data from the Nurse’s Health Study (Weuve et al. 2004) have demonstrated that walking for a minimum of 1.5 h per week is associated with better cognitive performance and in a cohort of Dutch men, decreasing activity duration by more than 60 min/day over 10 years resulted in significant cognitive dec”
Aging Successfully: A Four-Factor Model (2011, background): “Research has shown a positive association between exercise and both cognitive function (Colcombe & Kramer, 2003; Weuve et al., 2004) and physical function (Brach et al.”
Exercise Improves Executive Function and Achievement and Alters Brain Activation in Overweight Children: A Randomized Controlled Trial (2011, background): “Experimental and prospective cohort studies conducted with adults demonstrate that long-term regular physical activity alters human brain function (Colcombe et al., 2004; Weuve et al., 2004).”
Enrichment Effects on Adult Cognitive Development (2008, background): “Weuve et al. (2004) also examined the relationship between physical activity and cognitive change over a 2-year period in a population of 16,466 nurses over the age of 70.”
