Do you play in class? Board games to promote cognitive and educational development in primary school: a cluster randomized controlled trial

Research aims: The aim of this study was to assess the effects of a school intervention programme based on modern board games during school hours on basic executive functions and on academic skills (reading and maths). Methodology: A total of 522 (age in years = 8.83 ± 1.85 SD; % female = 45.5) prim...

We conducted a cluster-randomised controlled trial, with one experimental group (playing board games in class) and one control group (regular classes) in all grades from first to sixth.
