进行了一项荟萃分析研究，以检验有氧健身训练增强健康但久坐的老年人的认知活力的假设。1966年至2001年间发表的18项干预研究被纳入分析。得到了几个具有重要理论和实际意义的结果。最重要的是，健身训练被发现有强大的，但选择性的好处认知，最大的健身诱导的好处发生在执行控制过程。健身对认知的影响程度也受到许多程序和方法因素的调节，包括健身训练干预的长度，干预的类型，训练课程的持续时间和研究参与者的性别。最近的神经科学和心理学数据表明，认知和神经可塑性保持整个生命周期的结果进行了讨论。
A meta-analytic study was conducted to examine the hypothesis that aerobic fitness training enhances the cognitive vitality of healthy but sedentary older adults. Eighteen intervention studies published between 1966 and 2001 were entered into the analysis. Several theoretically and practically important results were obtained. Most important, fitness training was found to have robust but selective benefits for cognition, with the largest fitness-induced benefits occurring for executive-control processes. The magnitude of fitness effects on cognition was also moderated by a number of programmatic and methodological factors, including the length of the fitness-training intervention, the type of the intervention, the duration of training sessions, and the gender of the study participants. The results are discussed in terms of recent neuroscientific and psychological data that indicate cognitive and neural plasticity is maintained throughout the life span.
