Abstract

The purpose of this study was to analyze the effects of jump band exercise(JEx) and yoga exercise (YEx) for 12 weeks on brain function related factor, and learning attitude factor in male middle school students aged 12-15 years by dividing them into a JEx(N=15), YEx group(N=14), and control group (N=14). The JEx and YEx grograms included 45-minute sessions 3 times each week at the following intesities: 40-50%HRR(RPE 9-10) for 1-4 weeks, 50-60%HRR(RPE 11-12) for 5-8 weeks, 60-70%HRR(RPE13-14) for 9-12 weeks. For the comparision of mean value differences in each item before and after 12-week exercise, Two-way repeated measures ANOVA was used to test the interactions between each period in the JEX, YEx, and control groups. A paired t-test was used to analyze the within-group differences, and one-way analysis of variance(ANOVA) was used to analyze the differences between the JEX, YEx, and control groups with a post-hoc Scheffe’s test. The alpha level of p.05 was set for all tests of significance. The findings of this study were as follows; BDNF, total attitude, concentrating attention, and learning method showed the interaction between time and groups. In conclusion, this study suggested that regular JEx and YEx has effective methods for the development of brain function and the improvement of quality of learning attitude due to increasing BDNF and total learning attitude score, and decreasing cortisol in male middle school students.
