The role of the training is to improve the symptoms of Parkinson's disease. The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of exercise intensity on learning, spatial memory and anxiety behaviors in rat with impair . In this study, 24 male rats were randomly divided into 5 healthy control groups, Parkinson's control, Parkinson's (low, moderate, and high intensity) exercises. The creation of the Parkinson's Model was injected intra-brain-6-hydroxydopamine. To assess learning and spatial memory, Morris water maze test and Counting Counting were used as an indicator of anxiety behavior. Data analysis was done by one-way ANOVA at a significant level (P <0.05). Injection of 6-hydroxydopamine increased the duration of the platform and destroyed spatial memory (P <0.05), Although all three types of space memory training decreased significantly in Parkinson's rats significantly (P <0.05), high intensity exercise showed the greatest effect on learning and spatial memory (0.05). (P <0.05), there was a significant difference between the high and low intensity training groups (P <0.05). This difference was not significant between the moderate and low intensity groups in most of the variables (P <0.05). Different intensities, especially high intensity, improve the parameters of spatial memory

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of perceptual-motor training on working memory in children with hearing disorders. For this purpose, 24 student with hearing loss (9-12 years old) in Kermanshah were selected and randomly divided to experimental and control groups. A working memory test by Wechsler memory software was used in this study. The experimental group performed a perceptual-motor training program (static and dynamic balance exercises, throw and receive the ball …) for 8 weeks, 3 sessions per week, 60 minutes each session. Finally, both groups conducted the posttest. Based on α=0.01 and normal distribution of data, mixed ANOVA test was used. The results showed that working memory was influenced by perceptual-motor training (P<0.05). Children in the experimental group showed a better significant performance in terms of counting on forward and visual memory span than control group (P<0.05), but there was no significant difference in the countdown between the two groups (P˃0.05). The present findings suggest that perceptual-motor training can improve working memory in children with hearing loss.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of external intervention factor (types of music) on physical fitness factors in adolescent boys. 30 adolescent boys (9-12 years old, MSD height, weight and BMI: 133.82.40 cm, 35.62.97 kg, and 19.91.21 kg/cm2), were selected and performed the ...

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of external intervention factor (types of music) on physical fitness factors in adolescent boys. 30 adolescent boys (9-12 years old, MSD height, weight and BMI: 133.82.40 cm, 35.62.97 kg, and 19.91.21 kg/cm2), were selected and performed the tests in three stages (fast music, slow music, control) with Counter Balance method. In each stage, the muscular endurance, coordination, agility and muscular power tests were used. Also, fast rhythm (135-140 bpm) and slow rhythm (115-120 bpm) were used. Data were analyzed one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Bonferroni post hoc test. The results showed that the changes in the results of muscular endurance tests including push up, sit-up and pull up were significant in all three stages (P<0.05). The results of push up significantly outperformed those of control group in fast and slow music stages. There was a significant difference in sit-up and endurance strength between both intervention groups and control group (P<0.05). In each stage, the changes in the results of coordination tests were significant (P=0.01). The subjects outperformed in the control stage (no music) compared with the other stages (P<0.05). The agility results showed no significant difference among the three stages (P>0.05). The explosive power results showed significant differences in the fast music stage than control and slow music stages (P<0.05). Finally listening to the music during strength and endurance performances increases the efficiency of performance. Fast music maybe more effective in preventing central fatigue. On the other hand, every kind of music has negative effects on performance of coordination test and has no effect on performance of the agility test.
