“Cognition, Intelligence and Movement”: Extracurricular Physical Activity as a Promoter of Intelligence in Schoolchildren
The main objective of this study was to assess the existence of significant relationships between motor capacity, academic performance and intelligence in a sample of 67 pre-adolescent children, between the ages of 8 and 11 years. Speed tests were carried out (10 × 5 m shuttle run and plate tapping test), and academic grades in Spanish Language and Literature, Mathematics, Natural Sciences, Foreign Language (English) and Physical Education were considered. The Raven test was administered to estimate the intelligence of the subjects. The results showed significant correlations, mainly between the motor capacities and intelligence variables but not with academic performance. Significant differences were also observed in subjects who participated in sports, with better results in motor capacities and intelligence tests compared to those who did not. The data reveal that engaging in intense physical activity and sports in general may improve academic performance.
