Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Evaluation by creative thinking test. Specifically, in the analysis of the main evaluation, the change in creative thinking before and after the intervention is compared between the exercise intervention group and the control intervention group. For the evaluation of divergent thinking, we will employ the Alternative Uses Test; for the evaluation of convergent thinking, we will employ insight problem-solving tests. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| 1) Comparison of mood evaluation by visual analog scale immediately after each intervention in the exercise intervention group and the control intervention group 2) Whether the effects of exercise intervention are affected by personal characteristics such as mental status and cognitive functions 3) The relationship between creative thinking evaluated before exercise intervention and other personal characteristics 4) Relationships among other personal characteristics | — |
