Abstract
This study aimed to discover the effect of different type of exercise and forms of recovery on selective attention performance among UNIMAS students whose age level is similar. The research on young adults is neglected when research on attention is primarily focused on children with ADHD even though some research suggests that some components of cognitive function; attention, may begin to deteriorate in early adulthood. Physical inactivity also has been considered a global pandemic that causes multiple diseases besides Malaysia has the highest prevalence of obesity among adults in South East Asia. Hence, this thesis focuses only on young adults regarding their selective attention based on the different types of exercise and forms of recovery. The quantitative approach with a 2×2 factorial between-subject design was done at the Fitness Gym, UNIMAS which included 40 participants and takes 4 days in total. The experiment of the Stroop task for selective attention was implemented and presented online using the PsyToolkit platform and the total reaction time was referred to as the measurement. By using the two-way ANOVA, it indicates that the interaction of those independent variables described that it depends on the exercise that someone wanted to do; which means different exercises required different recovery to maximize or increase the efficiency of selective attention performance. It is hoped that this finding can educate people on a better understanding of how certain exercise benefits cognition besides valuable for the sports and health department to develop policies and programs that focus on improving students' health and physical status.
