摘要:The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of an integrated physical exercise program on the inhibitory control in adolescent girls. Thirty- two high school female students who met all inclusion criteria of the study were selected and randomly divided into experimental and control groups. The experimental group participated in the fourteen integrated physical training sessions, composed of a combination of aerobic, balance, and fine-motor exercises, while the control group received the routine physical education programs. Changes in the subjects' inhibition before and after training were measured by the Stroop test and a factorial repeated measures ANOVA. Our results showed that the trend of changes in interference scores was significantly decreased in the integrated training group. Accordingly, the results of the present study support the effectiveness of combining aerobic, balance and fine-motor exercises to improve the adolescents’ inhibitory control.
