Abstract

The study was conducted because several theories say physical activity can provide a positive influence on cognitive function. The research method uses Ex Post Facto with an intact-group comparison approach. The research sample is a member of the bike to work community, which is between 20 and 35 years old with 30 people. The sampling technique uses purposive sampling. The instrument used is a Letter Test or Number Test. Independent samples t-test to see the effect of cycling activity on the ability of short term memory by looking at the difference in average scores sample group. The results showed that the average score of the cycling group's ability was better than the motorized group (control). In other words, cycling activity has a positive influence on the ability of short term memory.
