Abstract:
Electrophysiologic effects of physical exercise were investigated by comparing a training group and non-training group. ERPs were recorded by oddball paradigm using auditory stimuli as well as count and reaction tasks. EMG-RT was recorded during the reaction task. No reliable exercise effects on N100 amplitudes or latencies were observed. Concerning P300 amplitudes, no significant difference between the training group and non-training group was seen although P300 latencies of the training group were significantly shorter than those of the non-training group in the count task. Moreover, EMG-RT of the training group was significantly shorter than that of the non-training group.
These findings suggest that the long-term physical exercise improved the efficiency of informa-tion processing and superior cognitive function in the brain.
