Brain neural mechanisms underlying VR enhanced aerobic exercise for mood enhancement in depressed adolescents
A single bout of VR-assisted aerobic exercise more effectively enhances immediate mood in middle-school students with depressive symptoms than traditional cycling, likely owing to stronger modulation of microstate dynamics linked to emotion and attention networks and of oscillatory activity in specific frequency bands.
