Does a header a day keep the positive effects of physical activity on cognitive performance away? A call to consider physical activity-related head impacts as a moderator variable

Fabian Herold, Matthew B. Pontifex, Thomas Gronwald, Matthew D. Heath

Abstract There is growing evidence that acute and chronic physical activity (PA) can improve cognitive performance and that variables such as PA dosage and type are important moderators for this effect. Notably, some PA types (e.g., football/soccer) encompass events (e.g., headers) that …
