Figural representation of the mediation model presented in this article. Aerobic fitness (IV) influences spatial memory performance (DV). Hippocampal volume is predicted to mediate this relationship. The proposed model hypothesizes that aerobic fitness causes an increase in hippocampal volume, which in turn causes an improvement in spatial memory.
