3.2.1. Inhibitory Control
INTERACTION
Multivariate repeated-measures ANOVAs were performed to assess the changes in the inhibitory control indicators as assessed in the Stroop task between the two groups of participants (badminton vs. control) over time (before vs. after intervention) (The repeated-measures ANOVA results showed a significant interaction for accuracy in both conditions between the badminton intervention group and the control group. The results of the simple effects analyses showed that in terms of accuracy (inconsistent condition), there was a significant difference between the pre-intervention and post-intervention Stroop test results and the pre-intervention and post-intervention test results in the control group for the badminton group over time, but the post-intervention test results between the two groups were not statistically significant (Time within group 1: the comparison of the results measured by the Badminton group at the pre-intervention and post-intervention time points; Time within group 2: the comparison of the results measured by the control group at the pre-intervention and post-intervention time points; Group within time (2): the comparison of test results between the two groups after the intervention. The F value was used to assess the differences between the groups. Values under Time effect, Group effect, and Interaction are Simple effects analysis.
