Short Term Memory Test and Long Term Memory Test, Aesthesiometer and Muller lyer Illusion Tests were used for this study. The training sessions performed five days a week and training classes were divided into two sessions, one was in the morning and the other in the evening with the duration of one forty five minutes each session. Repeated Measures Analysis of Variance was applied to investigate the existence of significant difference among Pre Treatment Phase, First Phase and Second Phases of ten months exercise programme. In conclusion significant improvement was found in case of Long Term Memory, Short Term Memory, Tactile Sense but no significant improvement was observed in case of Visual Perception after ten months of physical education training programme. Exercise not only gives health life style but also improve your neuropsychological variables so exercise is strongly recommended.

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of physical education programme on neuropsychological variables. Only one hundred college students (Boys) whose age range between 22 to 27 years were randomly assigned to training from Bped Colleges. Short Term Memory, Long Term Memory, Tactile Sense and Visual Perception were measured for this study. Short Term Memory Test and Long Term Memory Test, Aesthesiometer and Muller lyer Illusion Tests were used for this study. The training sessions performed five days a week and training classes were divided into two sessions, one was in the morning and the other in the evening with the duration of one forty five minutes each session. Repeated Measures Analysis of Variance was applied to investigate the existence of significant difference among Pre Treatment Phase, First Phase and Second Phases of ten months exercise programme. In conclusion significant improvement was found in case of Long Term Memory, Short Term Memory, Tactile Sense but no significant improvement was observed in case of Visual Perception after ten months of physical education training programme. Exercise not only gives health life style but also improve your neuropsychological variables so exercise is strongly recommended.
