运动经验对锻炼习惯的养成起着举足轻重的作用,具有增强认知表现的相互促进的关系。公认的由运动驱动的认知可塑性需要进行全面的检查。因此,这项研究深入研究了前额叶皮层的动态复杂性,探索定向运动经验对认知表现的影响。我们的发现提供了有关特定大脑区域的功能激活的经验证据,从而弥合了经验因素与认知能力之间的联系。在这项横断面研究中,纳入了一个由49名运动员组成的队列,在不同的非专业场景中,仔细研究了不同经验水平的定向越野运动员的行为差异和前额叶皮质动力学.这些研究涉及利用功能近红外光谱(fNIRS)来检测氧合血红蛋白(HbO2)的变化。经验丰富的专家组表现出神经效率,表现出背外侧前额叶的大脑激活显着减少,左腹外侧前额叶,与低经验组相比,右眶额叶区域。在低经验的新手群体中,与心理旋转任务相比,空间记忆任务表现优异,与高经验组相比,在所有条件下的反应时间始终较低。值得注意的是,与低经验新手组相比,高经验专家组的脑血氧合激活显着降低,与任务类型无关。背外侧前额叶在任务开始时表现出激活,不管经验水平如何。空间记忆任务中的正确率始终高于心理旋转任务中的正确率,而在心理旋转任务中,大脑区域的激活明显大于空间记忆任务。“这项研究阐明了经验丰富的专家和新手之间前额叶皮层动力学的差异,在经验丰富的人群中展示认知优势,在缺乏经验的人群中展示空间记忆优势。我们的发现有助于理解作为观察到的认知优势基础的神经机制,并提供对空间认知任务中定向运动经验动员的前脑资源的见解。\"
Sporting experience plays a pivotal role in shaping exercise habits, with a mutually reinforcing relationship that enhances cognitive performance. The acknowledged plasticity of cognition driven by sports necessitates a comprehensive examination. Hence, this study delves into the dynamic intricacies of the prefrontal cortex, exploring the impact of orienteering experience on cognitive performance. Our findings contribute empirical evidence regarding the functional activation of specific brain regions bridging the nexus between experiential factors and cognitive capabilities. In this cross-sectional study, a cohort of forty-nine athletes was enrolled to meticulously examine behavioral variances and prefrontal cortex dynamics among orienteering athletes of varying experience levels across diverse non-specialized scenarios. These investigations involved the utilization of functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) to detect alterations in oxygenated hemoglobin (HbO2). The high-experience expert group exhibited neurological efficiency, demonstrating significantly diminished brain activation in the dorsolateral prefrontal, left ventral lateral prefrontal, and right orbitofrontal regions compared to the low-experience group. Within the low-experience novice group, superior performance in the spatial memory task was observed compared to the mental rotation task, with consistently lower reaction times across all conditions compared to the high-experience group. Notably, cerebral blood oxygenation activation exhibited a significant reduction in the high-experience expert group compared to the low-experience novice group, irrespective of task type. The dorsolateral prefrontal lobe exhibited activation upon task onset, irrespective of experience level. Correct rates in the spatial memory task were consistently higher than those in the mental rotation task, while brain region activation was significantly greater during the mental rotation task than the spatial memory task.\" This study elucidates disparities in prefrontal cortex dynamics between highly seasoned experts and neophyte novices, showcasing a cognitive edge within the highly experienced cohort and a spatial memory advantage in the inexperienced group. Our findings contribute to the comprehension of the neural mechanisms that underlie the observed cognitive advantage and provide insights into the forebrain resources mobilized by orienteering experience during spatial cognitive tasks.\"
