Research on Athletes Visual Search: A Case Study

This paper aimed at comparing expert and novice volleyball players in a visual-motor task using realistic stimuli. A Volleyball Setter attack action video to the participants, while their eye movements were recorded on the head video based on eye movement. Participants were asked to predict the direction (forward or backward) the press of a key, toss setter. The key response time, response speed, and gaze behavior is from the first frame display setter ball contact to the measurement of the button pressed. Experts predict faster and more accurate than the direction of novice, show accurate predictions, continues for a long time they use fixed less search strategy and cost less time watching all the display area, key information is extracted from the judgment in the. These results are consistent with the view that superior performance in experts is due to their ability to efficiently encode domain-specific information that is relevant to the task.
