Relationships among self-reported physical activity, aerobic fitness and reaction time. 1988

C D Forth, and A W Salmoni

Centre for Research in Human Development, Laurentian University, Sudbury, Ontario.

Three age groups were studied: 10-11, 17-18, and 23-24 year-olds. Significant correlations were found between aerobic fitness and physical activity level and between aerobic fitness and reaction time, in the oldest group only.
