Document Summary

Direct method to study vision in motor control is to record eye movements. Researcher can play a film and have performer watch it observing where and which parts the eye fixates, or they can measure eye movements while performer is doing the action. Tennis study (2002), skilled players fixated more on the hip-trunk/head-shoulder area, less skilled focused on racquet. Temporal occlusion procedure: investigates the amount of time needed for a person to gather the information they need to perform a movement: abernathy study: badminton players shown video with deliberate pauses embedded. When a pause occurred they were asked to predict where the shuttle would land. Based on how accurate the player was, and when the decision was made, researchers could determine at what point the player made the decision: lab based temporal occlusion procedures are very generalizable to the external population. The purpose of this procedure is to determine what information is used to predict where the shuttle would land.
