Effects of physical activity Cognitive-Behavior program on physical activity Pattern and Motion Cognitive Imitation Ability in Children with ADHD in Elementary School

Objectives This study was to investigate the effects of physical activity cognitive-behavior program on physical activity pattern and motion cognitive Imitation ability in children with ADHD in elementary school. Methods In order to achieve the purpose of this study, children with ADHD in elementary school at D, and S local, were selected at random and allocated 33 children with ADHD in elementary school each for the Non Exercise group(NEG), Deficient Exercise group(DEG), Over Exercise group(OEG) and measured physical activity pattern and motion cognitive imitation ability before and after the experiment. The data obtained from this study were analyzed using the SPSS 24.0 statistical program the two-way repeated measures ANOVA and Bonferroni post-hoc test was performed. Results The physical activity cognitive-behavior program for 24 weeks. The results of this study were as follows: First, As a result of analyzing the change of physical activity pattern according to physical activity cognitive-behavior program, OEG was significantly improved compared to NEG and DEG. Second, As a result of analyzing the change of motion cognitive imitation ability according to physical activity cognitive-behavior program, OEG was significantly improved compared to NEG and DEG. Conclusions As conclusions, this study confirmed that the physical activity cognitive-behavior program on physical activity pattern and motioncognitive imitation ability distribution in children with ADHD in elementary school.
