This study examined how physical activity and athletic status affect subjective and objective measures of executive functioning in university students. A total of 217 university students aged 18-25 (83% female) completed a virtual assessment of executive function. The predictor variables were age, sex, physical activity and athletic status. Structural equation modelling was used to predict objective executive function using a three-factor model (shifting, updating, and inhibition). The Executive Function Index (EFI) was used to measure subjective executive functioning, and linear regression was used to predict total EFI scores. The study found that physical activity (b=0.12, p |
