A scoping review of effects of acute exercise on executive function: evidence from event-related potentials by Zhidong Cai, Lin Shi, Wenjie Wu, Liang Meng, Yao Ru, Moulin Wu

“…Thirty-seven studies (86%) demonstrated that exercise enhanced P3 wave amplitude, whereas 13 studies (27.1%) observed a reduction in latency. Eight studies (53.3%) indicated an increase in N2 wave amplitude following exercise, whereas two studies (13.3%) reported a decrease in latency.ConclusionModerate-intensity acute aerobic exercise lasting 16–35 min demonstrates a positive impact on both executive function performance and event-related potential components, with effects lasting approximately 30 min. …”
