Researchers are looking for children (ages 11-12) to participate in a Department of Exercise Science research study examining the relationship between physical activity and cognition. Children will have the opportunity to play Xbox 360 and Xbox Kinect games.

Wally Bixby, associate professor of exercise science, had his paper, "A dimensional investigation of the state anxiety inventory in an exercise setting: Cognitive vs. somatic," accepted for publication in the Journal of Sport Behavior. The article will appear in Volume 34(4) in 2011 and was co-authored by Brad Hatfield from the University of Maryland.
