BOSSIO, Maximiliano  y  JUSTEL, Nadia. Impacto de un estilo de vida activo sobre la memoria emocional. Acción psicol. [online]. 2018, vol.15, n.1, pp.39-56.  Epub 24-Jul-2023. ISSN 2255-1271.  https://dx.doi.org/10.5944/ap.15.1.21446.

Aerobic and resistance exercise has been related to physical health promotion, besides in the last years its effects at a cognitive level has been investigated. Based on that, the aim of the current work was to evaluate the possible effect of having an active life style on emotional memory. Fortyeight adults of early and middle age participated (range: 18-58 years old) who complete a report through the International Physical Activity Questionnaire about the amount and type of physical activity performed in a typical or regular week, i.e. a week sustained in the last three months of their lives. To evaluate emotional memory participants watched positive, negative and neutral images selected from the International Affective Picture System. Then, how many images they recall and recognize was evaluated (immediate and deferred measures). Participants that had a high level of physical activity in their lives remember immediately more positive images than those participants with a low or moderate level of activity. Besides, this group obtained better results in the immediate recognition measure. Thus, incorporate physical activity as a life style shows benefits in the emotional positive memory.
