TLDR
It is suggested that experience in open skills has benefits of promoting both proactive and reactive controls for task switching, which corresponds to the activity context exposed by the participants.

Effects of Open Versus Closed Skill Exercise on Cognitive Function: A Systematic Review.

TL;DR: The review tends to support that OSE is more effective for improving some aspects of cognitive function compared with CSE, and more rigorous randomized control trials with long-term follow-ups are needed in order to confirm these differential cognitive effects of the two exercise modes.

Sport type determines differences in executive functions in elite athletes

TL;DR: In this paper, a cross-sectional study of Austrian elite athletes in static, interceptive, and strategic sports was conducted using a cross sectional study design, which indicated that the development of EF might be favored by the deliberate practice of strategic sports, and/or that EF might play a more prominent role in strategic sports.

Executive functions in elite athletes – Comparing open-skill and closed-skill sports and considering the role of athletes' past involvement in both sport categories

TL;DR: In this article, the role of sport involvement in open-skill and closed-skill sports until the age of 18 on executive functions was investigated and the results indicated that extensive time spent in open and closed skill sports can affect executive functions in elite athletes.

Which Type of Exercise Is More Beneficial for Cognitive Function? A Meta-Analysis of the Effects of Open-Skill Exercise versus Closed-Skill Exercise among Children, Adults, and Elderly Populations

TL;DR: Results suggest that OSE is superior to CSE, especially for executive function, according to the 15 cross-sectional studies examined, however, data from the intervention studies indicate that O SE is not superior, and additional well-designed, long-term intervention studies are needed to elucidate the potential efficacy of OSE.

The variable nature of cognitive control: a dual mechanisms framework.

TL;DR: Recent research is summarized that demonstrates how the DMC framework provides a coherent explanation of three sources of cognitive control variation - intra-individual, inter-individual and between-groups - in terms of proactive versus reactive control biases.

Cardiovascular fitness, cortical plasticity, and aging

TL;DR: It is demonstrated for the first time to the authors' knowledge, in humans that increases in cardiovascular fitness results in increased functioning of key aspects of the attentional network of the brain during a cognitively challenging task.

Forward modeling allows feedback control for fast reaching movements

TL;DR: The ability of the motor system to estimate the future state of the limb might be an evolutionary substrate for mental operations that require an estimate of sequelae in the immediate future.

Global Physical Activity Questionnaire (GPAQ) : nine country reliability and validity study

TL;DR: GPAQ provides reproducible data and showed a moderate-strong positive correlation with IPAQ, a previously validated and accepted measure of physical activity, indicating that it is a suitable and acceptable instrument for monitoring physical activity in population health surveillance systems.
