Limited potential for fNIRS photobiomodulation in exercise-induced pupil dynamics and improved executive function
• Exercise-enhanced prefrontal cognition is related to pupil-linked arousal. • Martini and Arias suggest alternative interpretations via NIR photobiomodulation . • Exercise-induced pupil dilation occurs independently of fNIRS attachment. • Further discussion of such claims is premature without more robust evidence.
