Book The Effect of Radar Gun Augmented Feedback on Consistency of the Volleyball Standing Float Serve of Intercollegiate Volleyball Players

Download or read book The Effect of Radar Gun Augmented Feedback on Consistency of the Volleyball Standing Float Serve of Intercollegiate Volleyball Players written by Iain B. Bradbury and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: The investigation was designed to examine the effect of augmented feedback of serve velocity provided to male and female NCAA Division III varsity volleyball players. A JUGS radar gun was used to measure the peak velocity of the standing float serve produced by male and female varsity volleyball players (males n 10, females n = 10) in a pretest, testing phase and posttest. Significant differences (p .05) were found between the velocities of the serves performed by the male experimental group in the pretest and posttest. No significant (p .05) differences were found between the velocities of the serves performed in the pretest and posttest for the male control group, the female experimental group and the female control group. Significant differences (p .05) in the percentage of successful serves in the pretest and posttest for the male participants in the experimental group were found. No significant (p .05) differences were found among the percentage of successful serves in the pretest and posttest for all other participants. The male participants in the experimental group used the augmented feedback to produce a standing float serve velocity closer to the prescribed 32 mph in the posttest as compared to the pretest velocities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first edition of Kreighbaum and Barthels "Biomechanics "was the first book in this field to approach human movement qualitatively rather than quantitatively-- focusing on generalizable concepts that can be used by an instructor, coach, or exercise specialist to analyze several different sports activities with a common overall performance objective. The fourth edition retains this qualitative approach and expands it to include an even broader perspective for movement professionals in general.

Book Motor Control in Everyday Actions

Download or read book Motor Control in Everyday Actions written by Timothy D. Lee and published by Human Kinetics. This book was released on 2011-05-05 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Motor Control in Everyday Actions presents 47 true stories that illustrate the phenomena of motor control, learning, perception, and attention in sport, physical activity, home, and work environments. At times humorous and sometimes sobering, this unique text provides an accessible application-to-research approach to spark critical thinking, class discussion, and new ideas for research. The stories in Motor Control in Everyday Actions illustrate the diversity and complexity of research in perception and action and motor skill acquisition. More than interesting anecdotes, these stories offer concrete examples of how motor behavior, motor control, and perception and action errors affect the lives of both well-known and ordinary individuals in various situations and environments. Readers will be entertained with real-life stories that illustrate how research in motor control is applicable to real life: •Choking Under Pressure examines information processing and how it changes under pressure. •The Gimme Putt shows how Schmidt’s law can be used to predict the accuracy of golf putts. •Turn Right at the Next Gorilla examines inattention blindness and its role in traffic accidents. •The Farmers’ Market describes reasons why a man drives his car through a crowded open-air market, killing and injuring dozens of shoppers in the process. •Craps and Weighted Bats describes the curious role of myths and superstition in how we play games. •And 42 other examples of motor control in everyday actions will both entertain and inform. Each story is followed by a set of self-directed activities that are progressively more complex. These activities, plus the additional notes and suggested readings and websites at the conclusion of each story, provide a starting point for critical thinking about the reasons why human actions sometimes go awry. A reader-friendly writing style and easy-to-follow analysis and conclusions assist students in gaining mastery of the issues presented, conceptualizing new research projects, and applying the content to current research. The stories are grouped into three parts, beginning with situations involving errors and mistakes in perception, action, or decision making. Next, stories investigating varied techniques for studying perception and action are presented. The remaining scenarios provide readers with a look at research focusing on the motor learning process as well as some of the unexpected discoveries resulting from those investigations. Motor Control in Everyday Actions will engage its readers—not only through the central topic of the story but also in the fundamental concepts involving perception, action, and learning. Used as a springboard for new research or as a catalyst for engaging discussion, Motor Control in Everyday Actions offers perspectives that will enhance understanding of how human beings interact with their world.
