【Supercategory：7. DESCENTE SPORTS SCIENCE Subcategory：7.7 Vol.7】
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of physical exercise on the level of cerebral activity in elementary school children. Twenty-five boys and 18 girls participated as subjects and the level of cerebral activity was measured by the test of memorizing 10-digit random number before and after engaging in various physical exercises. The conclusion was summarized that no significant differences in the level of cerebral activity were found between before and after the various physical exercises. However, it was found that the shorter did the children sleep, the poor was the level of cerebral activity just after rizing as compared to day-time or before sleep.
