About this trial
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if aerobic exercise improves executive functioning in obese children. It will also understand the effects of aerobic exercise on executive functioning in obese children. The main questions it aims to answer are:
1. What are the levels of executive functioning(inhibitory function, working memory, and cognitive flexibility) in normal-weight and obese children aged 8-10 years? 2. What are the differences on executive function before and after aerobic exercise intervention among obese children? 3. Do factors of health, gender and ages influence students' executive functioning (inhibitory function, working memory, and cognitive flexibility)? Researchers will compare the aerobic exercise intervention group with the no-aerobic exercise group in terms of executive function to see if and how much aerobic exercise has an effect on executive function.
Participants will:
(1) The aerobic exercise intervention group was given football and volleyball exercise intervention, and the control group was given routine school life for 3 months.
2\. Record the participants before and after the intervention level of executive function.
Eligibility criteria
Qualifiers
Age: Obese children aged 8-10 years.
The body weight was obese or above.
There was no history of other concomitant diseases related to obesity,Children with simple obesity.
Normal blood pressure.
Disqualifiers
In the process of the experiment, it is necessary to participate in other forms of intervention experiments. If the members of the experimental group or the control group are engaged in regular exercise or planned training, they need to be excluded from the experiment.
If the members of the experimental group are absent from work for more than1 week, the samples will be deemed to fall off. If the members of the experimental group and the control group fail to participate in any of the data collection on time, they will be excluded.
Before and after the experiment, the members of the experimental group or the control group who limited their movement due to sprain and other reasons were excluded.They were randomly divided into experimental group and control group.
