Registered outcomes 6
Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Change in Inhibitory Control Assessed by the Stroop Test | Immediately before and approximately 10 minutes after the 15-minute experimental condition, during each of the four experimental sessions. | Inhibitory control will be assessed using the Stroop task. Outcomes will include response accuracy and reaction time. Acute change will be calculated by comparing PRE and POST performance within each experimental session. | ClinicalTrials.gov |
| Primary | Change in Working Memory Assessed by the N-Back Test | Immediately before and approximately 10 minutes after the experimental condition, during each of the four experimental sessions. | Working memory will be assessed using the N-Back task. Outcomes will include accuracy, omissions/errors, and reaction time. Acute change will be calculated from PRE to POST within each experimental session. | ClinicalTrials.gov |
| Primary | Immediate Academic Performance | Approximately 10 minutes after the experimental condition, during each of the four experimental sessions. | Academic performance will be assessed using a 10-item multiple-choice test developed specifically for the academic content taught during each experimental session. Each question will have three response options and one correct answer. The outcome will be the number of correct responses, ranging from 0 to 10. | ClinicalTrials.gov |
| Secondary | Interest-Enjoyment | Approximately 10 minutes after the experimental condition, during each of the four experimental sessions. | Interest and enjoyment will be assessed using three items from the Interest/Enjoyment subscale of the Intrinsic Motivation Inventory. | ClinicalTrials.gov |
| Secondary | Rating of Perceived Exertion | Approximately 10 minutes after the experimental condition, during each of the four experimental sessions. | Perceived exertion during the 15-minute experimental condition will be assessed using a 0-10 Rating of Perceived Exertion scale, where higher scores indicate greater perceived exertion. | ClinicalTrials.gov |
| Other | Physical Activity During Experimental Sessions | Throughout each experimental classroom session, approximately 2 hours. | In a subsample of participants, triaxial accelerometers will objectively assess sedentary time, light physical activity, moderate-to-vigorous physical activity, and mean activity intensity during the experimental sessions. | ClinicalTrials.gov |
