| Objectives: The aim of this review was to provide an overview of researches presenting evidence for a relationship between physical well-being and cognitive outcomes in 2-7 year old typically developing children. Design: A systematic review. Methods: Articles involved in this review were from Science Direct, EBSCO and WoS. In total, 21 articles were included in this review. Two reviewers assessed the methodological quality independently. Results: The evidence for or against the relationship between physical well-being and cognitive outcomes was not sufficient. However, there was weak-to-strong evidence for some relationships between underlying categories of physical well-being and cognitive outcomes, including complex motor skills and higher order cognitive skills. Conclusions: There were some relationships between motor and cognitive skills. It offered insight into possible interventions designed to complex motor skills which may be beneficial for both motor and higher order cognitive skills of preschool children. ? 2021 ACM. |
