We give a comprehensive picture of perceptual-cognitive (PC) skills that could contribute to
performance in interceptive sports. Both visual skills that are low level and unlikely …

Cognition and behavior exhibit biases consistent with future expectations, and some of
these biases result in momentum-like effects and have been linked with the idea of …

In order to intercept a moving target such as a baseball with high spatio-temporal accuracy,
the perception of the target's movement speed is important for estimating when and where …

The future actions, behaviors, and outcomes of objects, individuals, and processes can often
be anticipated, and some of these anticipations have been hypothesized to result from …

The purpose of this study was to clarify the properties of visual strategies for gaze, eye, and
head movements in skilled table tennis players during rallies. Collegiate expert and semi …

During timing tasks, the brain learns the statistical distribution of target intervals and
integrates this prior knowledge with sensory inputs to optimise task performance. Daily …

Athletes have been found to demonstrate a superior ability to detect subtle variations in
dynamic displays (eg, point-light displays and videos) depicting expert actions compared to …

Processing latencies for coherent, high level percepts in vision are at least 100 ms and
possibly as much as 500 ms. Processing latencies are less in other modalities, but still …

Predicting the future is essential for organisms like Homo sapiens, who live in a dynamic
and ever-changing world. Previous research has established that conscious stimuli can lead …

Despite evidence that elite-level cricket umpires are highly accurate in making leg-before-
wicket (LBW) judgements, there is limited understanding as to how they make these …
