The Role of Physical Activity in Managing ADHD Symptoms in Children and Adolescents – Review of Current Literature by Barbara Chojnacka, Aleksandra Ożga, Julia Wątor, Agnieszka Woźniacka, Jerzy Krzeszowiak, Barbara Boba, Tomasz Pulanecki, Alicja Podolska, Sylwia Bryksy, Patrycja Kolano

“…Conclusions: This review’s findings show that physical activity interventions benefit ADHD symptoms and executive functions in children and adolescents. Results of the studies showed that physical activity, especially organized closed-skill activities like running and aerobic training, enhanced the core ADHD symptoms (impulsivity, attention dysregulation, hyperactivity) the most, while open-skill activities that require real-time adaptation to environmental changes, had some effect on inhibitory control. …”

Analysis and Prediction on Vehicle Ownership Based on an Improved Stochastic Gompertz Diffusion Process by Huapu Lu, He Ma, Zhiyuan Sun, Jing Wang

“…This diffusion model explains the relationship between vehicle ownership and GDP per capita, which has been studied as a Gompertz-like function before. The main innovations of the process lie in two parts: by modifying the deterministic part of the original Gompertz equation, the model can present the remaining slow increase when the S-shaped curve has reached its saturation level; by introducing the stochastic differential equation, the model can better fit the real data when there are fluctuations. …”
