Resumo

Esta revisão de escopo tem como objetivo mapear as evidências existentes sobre os efeitos do judô e da luta olímpica no desempenho cognitivo de crianças e adolescentes. Seguiu-se os critérios recomendados pelo Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR), desde a origem até março de 2025. A busca foi realizada em seis bases de dados eletrónicas: Web of Science, SCOPUS, PubMed, Sport Discus, ERIC e PsycInfo; bem como por outros métodos de identificação. Foram considerados elegíveis os estudos originais que envolvessem práticas de judô ou luta olímpica, com ou sem grupo de controlo, intervenções agudas ou crónicas, com participantes de ambos os sexos, com idades superiores a 6 e inferiores a 18 anos, de qualquer nível competitivo. A inclusão exigiu avaliações quantitativas de funções executivas, desempenho cognitivo ou rendimento académico. Um total de 1368 estudos foi inicialmente identificado, e após a aplicação dos critérios de inclusão e exclusão, 10 artigos foram incluídos na revisão, abrangendo uma amostra combinada de 683 participantes (50% do sexo masculino). Apesar da natureza heterogénea das intervenções, com diferentes tipos e características, os estudos revelaram consistentemente uma associação positiva entre a prática de judô ou luta e variáveis comportamentais e neurocognitivas. No entanto, destaca-se a qualidade metodológica subótima dos estudos incluídos. Os achados sugerem possíveis benefícios das práticas de judô ou luta nas funções executivas de crianças e adolescentes. Contudo, os resultados devem ser interpretados com cautela, dada a escassez de estudos rigorosos. Investigações futuras devem explorar relações dose-resposta, considerando idade, maturação, experiência e incluir grupos de controlo ativos.
