SUMMARY:

Evidences suggest that physical activity (PA) and sedentary behavior (SB) can be influenced by inhibitory control. Only one study to date has investigated the relationship between steps/day and inhibitory control. Better understanding the association between inhibitory control with PA, SB and steps/day is crucial for the development of approaches aimed at improving inhibitory control and increasing spontaneous PA. Our study resisted the association of inhibitory control with light physical activity (LPA), moderate/vigorous physical activity (MVPA), SB and steps/day in inactive adults. This cross-sectional study included 106 participants (33.4 ± 10.37 years; 62.2% women). The levels of PA, SB and steps/day were evaluated by accelerometry. Inhibitory control was obtained from the computerized Stroop Color and Word Test (SCWT). The Stroop effect is associated with moderate/vigorous physical activity (MVPA) (β = -0.009) and steps/day (β = -1.081). In conclusion, the results of this study demonstrate that a lower stroop effect (faster response speed) is associated with higher levels of MVPA and steps/day.
