| Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of acute exercise on peripheral visual perception. The first experiment, which was conducted under normoxic and hypoxic environment, showed that peripheral visual perception was impaired as cerebral oxygenation decreased during exercise. The second experiment indicated that strenuous exercise may impair top-down orienting of visual attention. These findings may give a clue to elucidate physiological factors that impair peripheral visual perception during exercise.
