Figure 1: The relationship between initial cognitive function and post-exercise improvement.

Caption

The x-axis shows the participants' baseline cognitive performance (response accuracy on the pre-test) and the y-axis shows improvement in cognitive performance (i.e. pre-post changes in response accuracy). Red and blue lines show the exercise condition and non-exercise control condition, respectively. It was understood that the benefit of aerobic exercise on cognitive performance (i.e., the difference between the red and blue bands) was greater in those who had lower pre-test scores.
