Abstract

Aim: To compare sports-related visual abilities - hand-eye response time and visuospatial intelligence of athletes to nonathletes. Materials & Methods: Differences in sports-related visual abilities such as hand-eye response time and visuospatial intelligence between athletes and nonathletes were studied in 30 boys (age-14.9±1.8 years) and 30 girls (age-14.3±1.6 years) school students. Visuospatial intelligence was assessed with Cattel‘s Culture Fair Intelligence Test. A random stimulus presentation and response recording was used for eye-hand response time with the help of audio-visual response time equipment. Results: Athletes had statistically significantly (p
