Takamido, Ryota; Yokoyama, Keiko; Yamamoto, Yuji – Research Quarterly for Exercise and Sport, 2021
Purpose: This study examined the effect of manipulating advanced kinematic information about opponents' pitching movement on ball speed prediction, ball speed perception, and impact timing errors under strict temporal constraints (i.e., a softball game). Method: Three experiments were conducted using visual stimuli consisting of varied kinematic…

Shim, Jaeho; Carlton, Les G.; Kwon, Young-Hoo – Research Quarterly for Exercise and Sport, 2006
The purpose of this study was to determine the sources of visual information used by highly skilled tennis players in anticipating their opponent's shots. In Experiment 1, motion analysis of the strokes showed that the relative motion between the racquet and forearm was different between the ground strokes and lobs, but there were no reliable…

Lobjois, Regis; Benguigui, Nicolas; Bertsch, Jean – Research Quarterly for Exercise and Sport, 2005
The purpose of the present study was to determine whether playing a specific ball sport, such as tennis, could maintain the coincidence-timing (CT) performance of older adults at a similar level to that of younger ones. To address this question, tennis players and nonplayers of three different age ranges (ages 20-30, 60-70, and 70-80 years)…
