Study Summary
The current clinical study will have two groups of participants (young adults ages 20 - 30, and older adults ages 60 - 70) take part in three visits to the lab. On the first visit participants will fill out questionnaires assessing demographics and physical activity level. On the 2nd and 3rd visits participants will be engage in both a moderate intensity bout of aerobic exercise for 20 minutes, and 20 minutes of resting on a stationary bike watching an educational video. These two visits will be counterbalanced across age groups. Following both the exercise bout and the resting control condition participants will complete cognitive tasks assessing episodic memory and executive functioning. The first hypothesis is that older adults who are more physically active (assessed via questionnaire) will have significantly greater cognitive abilities compared to those who are less active or sedentary. The second hypothesis is that following a single bout of moderate intensity aerobic exercise, older adults will have a greater magnitude of change in their short-term memory, and long-term memory performance compared to younger adults.
