Effects of open-skill exercise on executive functions in children and adolescents: a systematic review and meta-analysis by Shunding Hu, Peng Shi, Ziyun Zhang, Xiaosu Feng, Kai Zhang, Kai Zhang, Kai Zhang, Teng Jin

“…Open-skill exercise has a more positive impact on inhibitory control in the 5–9 age group and on working memory in the 10–16 age group (p < 0.05); open-skill exercise, especially, has a more positive intervention effect on inhibitory control in the Eastern group (p < 0.05). Both Egger linear regression analyses and literature sensitivity analyses suggested that the Meta-analysis results were stable and reliable.ConclusionOpen-skill exercise has a positive intervention effect on executive functioning in children and adolescents, and strategic skill exercise interventions are more effective. …”

Le mouvement étudiant et la question des langues en Algérie (1962-1965) : à propos d’un épisode méconnu de l’histoire de l’UGEMA-UNEA by Yassine Temlali

“…This, in spite of Ahmed Ben Bella’s declarations of Arabist principles, would work objectively not towards the defrancisation of the state and society but rather towards its bilingualisation through a measured promotion of Arabic.By contextualising as fully as possible a little-recognised mini-episode from the Fifth Congress of the UGEMA – and by illuminating, through this episode, the positions of the organisation on the linguistic question – this article emphasises the importance of university cultural debates for a better understanding of both the history of the Algerian student movement and the Berber claim in Algeria.…”
