Physical activity and academic achievement in children: A historical perspective (2012, background): “48,85,96 Within the past 5 years, Davis et al. 75 found a dose response with 20 min and 40 min of exercise compared to a control condition, but in an earlier analysis, only the high-dose signiﬁcantly improved executive functions.”
Effects of Integrated Physical Exercises and Gestures on Preschool Children’s Foreign Language Vocabulary Learning (2015, background): “Pesce et al. (2009) investigated the effects of physical activity on children ’ s memorization of vocabulary words from a foreign language.”
Exercise and children's cognition: The role of exercise characteristics and a place for metacognition (2015, methodology): “Pesce et al. 32 developed a 40-min intervention that included team games and circuit training characterized by rapidly changing conditions that required decisional responses made under time pressure.”
Physical Activity, Fitness, Cognitive Function, and Academic Achievement in Children: A Systematic Review. (2016, background): “, standard PE classes [126], team games [124], EF specific games and activities [91], aerobic circuit training [81,124], running tasks [33,44,68], and short activity breaks [109]).”
The effect of acute cognitively engaging physical activity breaks on children's executive functions: Too much of a good thing? (2018, background): “In terms of the core EFs, updating (Jäger et al., 2015; Pesce et al., 2009), inhibition (Benzing, Heinks, Eggenberger, & Schmidt, 2016; Jäger et al., 2015; Vazou & Smiley-Oyen, 2014) and shifting (Benzing et al., 2016; Jäger et al., 2015) were examined.”
Effects of Physical Activity on Children’s Executive Function: Contributions of Experimental Research on Aerobic Exercise (2010, background): “Pesce et al. (2009) assessed the amount of social interaction during group games and circuit training; unfortunately, they did not relate these data to performance on the cognitive task.”
