Document Summary
It is important that vo2 max increased because we know that there was a fitness level change that could be compared to the baseline measures. Also indicates the changes were in aerobic exercise and not just exercise in general. We know that activation of neural regions is occurring instead of just overall blood flow because while areas in the frontal and parietal regions had increase blood flow the acc did not (which was for response inhibition) Responsible for conflict monitoring (cid:862)co(cid:374)flict (cid:373)o(cid:374)itori(cid:374)g fu(cid:374)ctio(cid:374)(cid:863) responds to the occurrence of conflicts in information processing this conflict signal triggers strategic adjustments in cognitive control (which then prevents conflict in the future) Tasks that require overriding of prepontent repsonses. Tasks that require selection among a set of equally permissible reponses. Tasks that require the comission of errors. Hormone replacement therapy: decreased cognitive function in women. Pay attention to inclusion and exclusion criteria for study limitations resources (time, money, personnel) recruitment (where, inclusion and exclusion)
