Brief moderate-intensity aerobic exercise improves the executive function of Chinese undergraduates regardless of mobile phone addiction: Evidence from the antisaccade task.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Previous studies have shown that brief moderate-intensity aerobic exercise can improve the executive function of healthy adults. The present study sought to examine and compare the effects of brief moderate-intensity aerobic exercise on the executive functions of undergraduates with and without mobile phone addiction.

Method

Thirty-two healthy undergraduates with mobile phone addiction were recruited and randomly assigned to either an exercise or control group.
