This article describes an evidence-informed, collaborative process to bridge the gap between science and practice and tailor representative training designs to a national water polo team. Team gaps...

Virtual reality (VR) technology has received considerable attention over the last few years, with applications in many performance domains including t…

This investigation observed the repeated effect of using social media on smartphones immediately before training sessions on attack efficiency (AE) and repeat-vertical jumping ability (RVJA) in young....

The basic assumption of dual-process theory is that intuitive decision-making (DM) does not require cognitive resources such as working memory capacity (WMC). However, recent evidence from reasonin...

Over the previous years, immersive technologies have been increasingly used in different fields (Suh & Prophet, 2018;Tang et al., 2022). Furthermore, Ran...

Traditionally, in sports, we spend the majority of practice time trying to do the “right” things; that is, producing the desired performance outcomes (e.g., hitting a golf shot down the middle of the ...

Des chercheurs ont analysé la façon dont les membres de l’équipe canadienne de patinage de vitesse courte piste se sont adaptés aux grands décalages horaires lors de compétitions en Asie.

UdeM researchers find that cognitive training using NeuroTracker virtual-reality software does not, in fact, improve the on-field performance of teenage elite soccer players.

Dynamic and interactive sports require athletes to make fast and appropriate decisions in a rapidly changing environment. Decision-making (DM) in interactive sports depends on a variety of factors,...

This paper critically appraises the utility of markerless motion capture in the context of skill development and sports performance enhancement. If markerless motion capture is to be useful in a pr...

Tests of cognitive skills are increasingly used to identify talent in sports such as football, but there is so far little evidence to suggest that those tests are associated with sport-specific cognit...

Concussion is a common mild traumatic brain injury affecting athletic, military, and general populations. While unrestricted medical clearance often o…

Virtual Reality Head-Mounted Display (VR-HMD) is increasingly being used as a tool to improve sport performance. Recent studies showed that VR-HMD is well accepted by athletes, before a first use, to ...

The long-recognized association of brain injury with increased risk of dementia has undergone significant refinement and more detailed study in recent decades. Chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE...
