RESULTS

The group mean values (± SEM) of planning time, execution time, and number of moves, for both groups on Day 1 and Day 30 are given in Table I.

The yoga group showed a significant decrease in planning time for both 2-moves (T = 3, since T.02(2), 10 = 5, hence p< 0.02) and 4-moves (T = 1, since T.01(2), 10 = 3, hence p< 0.01); in execution time for both 4-moves (T = 3, hence p< 0.02) and 5-moves (T = 0, since T.001(2), 10 = 0, hence p< 0.001), and in the number of moves in the 4-move task (T = 1, hence p< 0.01). The physical training group showed no change.
