The effects of simultaneous aerobic exercise and video game training on executive functions and brain connectivity in older adults

Executive functions (EFs) encompass a set of higher-level cognitive control abilities, including inhibition, cognitive flexibility, and working memory.1 These functions are crucial for facilitating action control and adaptive responses to dynamic environmental changes.2 Consensus suggests that executive functions (EFs) decline noticeably with age, often associated with dysfunctions in the prefrontal cortex (PFC) regions and their associated networks, including the bilateral frontoparietal networks (FPN).
