The purpose of this study was to investigate the benefits exercises with different cognitive demands for functions (Executive and non-Executive) in healthy older adults. A cross-sectional design adopted. In total, 84 adults were enrolled study. They categorized into Tai Chi group (TG), brisk walking (BG) or control (CG). Each participant performed Stroop task a digit comparison task. included following three conditions: naming condition, an inhibition condition executive condition. There two...
Background Response inhibition is associated with successful sporting performance. However, research on response in athletes from open-skill sports has mainly focused a consciously triggered variety; little known about athletes’ elicited by unconscious stimuli. Methods Here, we explored differences between table tennis ( n = 20) and non-athletes 19) using the masked go/no-go task event-related potentials technique (ERPs). Results At behavioral level, displayed shorter go-response times (RTs)...
Increased conscious movement monitoring and control can impair sports performance. Recent evidence indicates it might facilitate stopping motor actions. To further investigate, we asked novices to putt balls, but they needed stop promptly while an auditory cue appeared during the downswing. They also completed Movement Specific Reinvestment Scale, which measures self-consciousness (MS-C) processing, indicating degree of inclination for control, respectively. Individuals with high MS-C...
Executive control, the ability to regulate execution of a goal-directed task, is an important element in athlete's skill set. Although previous studies have shown that executive control athletes better than non-athletes, those were mainly confined conscious control. Many recent suggested can be triggered by presentation visual stimuli without participant's awareness. However, few examined unconscious sports. Thus, present study investigated whether, similar table tennis superior...
The aim of the current study is to examine if top-down controlled response inhibition on a stop-signal task (SST) can be trained. Results from previous studies have been equivocal, possibly because signal-response combinations are often not varied across training and test phases, allowing bottom-up associations formed that may improve inhibition. compared SST in pre-test post-test an experimental group (EG) control (CG). In between tests, EG received ten sessions with varying were also...
The relationship between a performer’s conscious involvement or investment in movement control and monitoring the ability to inhibit is still unclear. We conducted three experiments investigate whether higher inclination for benefits inhibition of simple keypress response. In all experiments, was measured with Movement-Specific Reinvestment Scale. Experiment 1, participants performed go/no-go task manipulated by directing attention either finger (i.e., internal focus) resulting motion key...
