Differential effects of differing intensities of acute exercise on speed and accuracy of cognition: a meta-analytical investigationTerry McMorris
Chichester Centre of Applied Sport and Exercise Sciences, University of Chichester, Chichester, West Sussex, United Kingdom
Brain Cogn 80:338-51. 2012..The very limited effect on accuracy may be due to the failure to choose tests which are complex enough to measure exercise-induced changes in accuracy of performance...
Acute, intermediate intensity exercise, and speed and accuracy in working memory tasks: a meta-analytical comparison of effectsTerry McMorris
Institute of Sport, PE and Health Sciences, University of Edinburgh, St Leonard s Land, Holyrood Road, Edinburgh EH8 8AQ, Scotland, United Kingdom
Physiol Behav 102:421-8. 2011..There was no support for a speed-accuracy trade-off. It was argued that exercise-induced increases in brain concentrations of catecholamines result in faster processing but increases in neural noise may negatively affect accuracy...
Acute incremental exercise, performance of a central executive task, and sympathoadrenal system and hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis activityTerry McMorris

Int J Psychophysiol 73:334-40. 2009..It was concluded that exercise must be at a high intensity to affect performance on the flanker task. Both the SAS and HPAA appear to play a role in the exercise-cognition interaction...
Seating type and cognitive performance after 3 hours travel by high-speed boat in sea states 2-3Terry McMorris
Faculty of Sport, Education and Social Sciences, University of Chichester, Chichester, UK
Aviat Space Environ Med 80:24-8. 2009..We hypothesized that subjects using suspension seats would demonstrate better cognitive performance, lower perceptions of exertion, fatigue, and sleepiness, and lower salivary concentrations of cortisol than those using fixed seats...
A test of the catecholamines hypothesis for an acute exercise-cognition interactionT McMorris
University of Chichester, College Lane, Chichester, West Sussex PO19 6PE, UK
Pharmacol Biochem Behav 89:106-15. 2008..The regression data suggest that there is some relationship between exercise, catecholamines concentrations and cognition...
Short-duration, high-intensity exercise and performance of a sports-specific skill: a preliminary studyTerry McMorris
Centre for Sports Science and Medicine, University of Chichester, College Lane, Chichester, West Sussex PO19 6PE, United Kingdom
Percept Mot Skills 105:523-30. 2007..It was concluded that short-duration, high-intensity exercise has a negative effect on accuracy in a sports-specific task that requires both perceptual judgment and motor control...
Creatine supplementation and cognitive performance in elderly individualsTerry McMorris
School of Sport, Exercise and Health Sciences, University of Chichester, College Lane, Chichester, West Sussex PO19 6PE, UK
Neuropsychol Dev Cogn B Aging Neuropsychol Cogn 14:517-28. 2007..Participants were retested at the end of each week. Results showed a significant effect of creatine supplementation on all tasks except backward number recall. It was concluded that creatine supplementation aids cognition in the elderly...
Creatine supplementation, sleep deprivation, cortisol, melatonin and behaviorT McMorris
Centre for Sports Science and Medicine, University of Chichester, College Lane, Chichester, West Sussex PO19 6PE, UK
Physiol Behav 90:21-8. 2007..01) lower than in the other conditions. It was concluded that, during sleep deprivation with moderate-intensity exercise, creatine supplementation only affects performance of complex central executive tasks...
Effect of creatine supplementation and sleep deprivation, with mild exercise, on cognitive and psychomotor performance, mood state, and plasma concentrations of catecholamines and cortisolT McMorris
Centre for Sports Science and Medicine, University College Chichester, College Lane, Chichester, West Sussex PO19 6PE, UK
Psychopharmacology (Berl) 185:93-103. 2006..Therefore, creatine supplementation should lessen the negative effects of sleep deprivation...
Warm-up prior to undertaking a dynamic psychomotor task: does it aid performance?T McMorris
Centre for Sports Science and Medicine, University College Chichester, Chichester, UK
J Sports Med Phys Fitness 46:328-34. 2006..The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of differing types of warm-up on the performance of a psychomotor skill that required quick reaction and movement times (MTs), and whole-body co-ordination...
The measurement of plasma catecholamine and lactate thresholds: a comparison of methodsT McMorris
Centre for Sports Science and Medicine, University College Chichester, West Sussex, UK
Eur J Appl Physiol 82:262-7. 2000..63). It was concluded that the algorithmic method was less powerful than the other two methods, and that Th1a, ThA and ThNA are not highly correlated...
Supra-maximal effort and reaction and movement times in a non-compatible response time taskT McMorris
Centre for Sports Science and Medicine, University College Chichester, West Sussex, UK
J Sports Med Phys Fitness 45:127-33. 2005..The primary purpose of this study was to examine the effect of attempting to exercise supra-maximally on reaction time and movement time in a non-compatible response time task...
Performance of a psychomotor skill following rest, exercise at the plasma epinephrine threshold and maximal intensity exerciseT McMorris
Centre for Sports Science and Medicine, University College Chichester, West Sussex, United Kingdom
Percept Mot Skills 91:553-62. 2000..No significant effects of exercise were shown for any of the variables. The need for further research using more complex skill tests and the use of discontinuous exercise protocols, rather than continuous ones, is recommended...
Heat stress, plasma concentrations of adrenaline, noradrenaline, 5-hydroxytryptamine and cortisol, mood state and cognitive performanceTerry McMorris
Centre for Sports Science and Medicine, University College Chichester, College Lane, Chichester, West Sussex PO19 6PE, UK

Incremental exercise, plasma concentrations of catecholamines, reaction time, and motor time during performance of a noncompatible choice response time taskTerry McMorris
Centre for Sports Science and Medicine, University College Chichester, West Sussex, UK
Percept Mot Skills 97:590-604. 2003..Only power output was a significant predictor of movement time (R2 = .24). There was little support for the notion that peripheral concentrations of catecholamines directly induce a central nervous system response...
