| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We examined the effects of the moderate exercise on the improvement of efficiency of mental tasks. 10 minute moderate exercise could improve the number of answers of calculation drill, shortened motor time of TMT, inhibited commission errors in d2 test, and shortened the reaction time for answer in the spatial working memory task. These results suggested that prior moderate exercise might facilitate spatial information processing.
In animal experiments, on the other hand, it is necessary to increase the number of experimental animals to detect the significant differences in number of newly born cells and cognitive functions between groups. Further research also needed to clarify the effects of the fat/carb ratio of the food on the hippocampal neurogenesis.
