The Influence of Nonlinear Pedagogy Physical Education Intervention on Cognitive Abilities in Primary School Children: A Preliminary Study
Findings from this preliminary study indicate a significant relationship between NLP-based teaching and improvements in attention and visual processing speed. The NLP intervention group outperformed the control group in both domains, supporting the effectiveness of this pedagogical approach within primary school PE settings. These promising results encourage further investigation with larger samples and over longer intervention periods.
