The Working Memory Benefits Of Proprioceptively Demanding Training: A Pilot Study
Summary .— The aim of this study was to investigate the eff ect of proprioception on working memory. It was also of interest whether an acute and highly intensive period of exercise would yield working memory gains. The training group
completed a series of proprioceptively demanding exercises. There were also control classroom and yoga groups. Working memory was measured using a backward digit recall test. The data indicated that active, healthy adults who undertook acute,proprioceptively demanding training improved working memory scores compared to the classroom and yoga groups. One possible reason that the training yielded signifi cant working memory gains could be that the training was proprioceptively dynamic , requiring proprioception and at least one other factor—such as locomotion or navigation—at the same time, which may have contributed to the improvements in working memory performance.
