Importance of head movements in gaze tracking during table tennis forehand stroke
Hum Mov Sci. 2023 Jul 19;90:103124. doi: 10.1016/j.humov.2023.103124. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe purpose of this study was to clarify the properties of gaze and head movements during forehand stroke in table tennis. Collegiate table tennis players (n = 12) conducted forehand strokes toward a ball launched by a skilled experimenter. A total of ten trials were conducted for the experimental task. Horizontal and vertical movements of the ball, gaze, head and eye were analyzed from the image recorded by an eye tracking device. The results showed that participants did not always keep their gaze and head position on the b...

Learning complex upper-limb movements through practicing movement elements
Hum Mov Sci. 2023 Jun 28;90:103121. doi: 10.1016/j.humov.2023.103121. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTUpper-limb complex movements constitute a major part of our daily activities. Research shows complex movements are generated by sequences of movement elements represented by a unimodal bell-shaped velocity curve. We utilized this understanding in the field of motor skill acquisition and hypothesized that practicing a movement element of a complex movement trajectory will facilitate the performance on the respective complex movement trajectory. To test this, we designed an experiment where the control group learned a full com...

The effectiveness of penalty takers' deception: A scoping review
Hum Mov Sci. 2023 Jun 28;90:103122. doi: 10.1016/j.humov.2023.103122. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAttackers are supposed to take advantage of producing deceptive actions in competitive ball sports, particularly in penalty situations. We conducted a scoping review of the experimental literature to scrutinize whether penalty takers do indeed benefit from using deceptive actions in penalty situations, especially by increasing the likelihood to score a goal. Studies using video-based and in-situ tasks in which soccer and handball goalkeepers try to save a penalty were evaluated. Results showed that penalty takers' manipulati...

Subthreshold white noise vibration alters trembling sway in older adults
Hum Mov Sci. 2023 Jun 28;90:103119. doi: 10.1016/j.humov.2023.103119. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTBACKGROUND: Somatosensory deficit is a significant contributor to falls in older adults. Stochastic resonance has shown promise in recent studies of somatosensation-based balance disorders, improving many measures of stability both inside and outside of the clinic. However, our understanding of this effect from a physiological perspective is poorly understood. Therefore, the primary goal of this study is to explore the influence of subthreshold vibratory stimulation on sway under the rambling-trembling framework.METHODS: 10 ...
