The effects of a moderate-to-high intensity interval exercise training programme on selective and sustained attention in schoolchildren aged 11 and 12

Physical activity has been shown to have positive benefits on many brain function indices.
Nonetheless, evidence is scant regarding attention. This study therefore aimed to analyse …
