Abstract
Existing literature documents that the physical exercise has positive effects on cognition and emotion function in elderly. However, whether the functional movement training will improve the cognition and emotion is remains obscure. We enrolled 58 subjects (65–75 years old) in this research and randomly divided as control group without training (CG) and the training group (TG). The training was performed twice a week and 90 min for every time during the 10 weeks. To estimate the change of cognition and emotion of elderly people, reaction time and spatial memory were tested, emotional scales were used. The results showed that there was no significant difference between the two groups before 10 weeks of training. After 10 weeks of training, the cognition and emotion of the training group was significant improvement when compared with control group and the cognition and emotion of training group was significant improvement than that before training. The functional movement training over 10 weeks can improve the cognition and emotion function in elderly people.
