This study investigated the influence of spatiotemporal interpersonal coordination information on soccer and futsal dribbling outcomes. For this purpose, following relative measures were analysed: distance travelled in performance, time dribbling, velocity beginning dribbling. Participants included ninety-five amateur athletes who played matches Municipal (under-16 category, n = 59) National (under-17 36) Championships 2020. The sample consisted 27 dribbles 77 dribbles, which selected from recorded by two digital cameras. Results showed that successful performed when distances smallest velocities highest. It also involved an optimum range movement. No difference was revealed regarding dribbles. concluded affected outcomes sport but not soccer. These findings suggest attacking players should stay close to their markers perform as quickly possible; conversely, defenders maintain greater marking attackers synchronize movements counter at same velocity.

Theories of expertise either predict superior performance is due to monotonic and progressive exposure a domain task or non-linear domain. The aim this study was explore the predictions these theories by use an individual differences approach investigate how age, experience, level played within sample athletes with high contributes perceptual-cognitive-motor skill. Twenty-seven players sampled from junior rugby union high-performance pathways professional teams in Australia completed in-situ test involving four attackers three defenders. Participants were presented scenarios representative typical game had decide whether, who, pass ball, execute pass, run ball. Performance scored based upon expert coach rating scale. Results indicated significant more pronounced for decision-making, than motor execution components task. Superior decision-making not dependent solely greater experience playing union, nor age played. Further, those participants who specialized positional play during scenarios. Findings indicate that may need accommodate prolonged does provide complete explanation capability make effective decisions highly individualized.

Investigating the Influence of Virtual Reality Illusions on Balance Performance and Immersive User Experience (Preprint)

Опубликована: Дек. 20, 2024

Rehabilitation interventions to improve standing balance are often tedious and complex limiting user engagement increasing the burden of clinicians delivering them. Virtual Reality (VR) has been incorporated into such practices as a solution VR illusions have emerged method for perturbing within interventions. However, influence on performance, Centre Pressure (CoP), experience metrics remains under explored. This study aimed evaluate impact in young adults. Young healthy adults (n=15, age: 18-35) played table tennis game while force plate were provided with eight directional magnitude-based scaled according participants’ heights. generated by offsetting position playing hand through trials each participant. Each illusion was delivered throughout final 50 seconds 70-second trial. Absolute CoP displacements, tendency displacement performance analysed illusions. Responses User Experience Questionnaire, Slater-Usoh-Steed Presence NASA Task Load Index, Sickness Questionnaire assess immersive experience. Both magnitude changes direction led significantly greater displacements high magnitudes, anterior posterior associated higher displacements. Conversely, those magnitudes directions low performance. The varied across but showed significant association directions. responses that participants had moderate paradigm. provides novel approach future developments more effective VR-based rehabilitation results provide inspiration development exergames can perturbate magnitude.
