The Perception & Action Podcast

News: Why is it so difficult to play against left-handed opponents in sports? Will you drivers be ready when automated cars need them to take over?

Articles:

Skilled players' and novices' difficulty anticipating left- vs. right-handed opponents' action intentions varies across different points in time

What determines the take-over time? An integrated model approach of driver take-over after automated driving

My Review of the book “See to Play, The Eyes of Elite Athletes” by Dr Michael Peters. Do I see eye to eye with his views on the role of vision in sports?

Making adjustments to a heavily practiced, well established skill can be one of the most difficult tasks required of an experienced athlete. Although there can be several situations in sport for which this is required (e.g., rule or/and equipment changes, advancement to a higher level of play), there are a dearth of empirical studies that have examined the processes underlying successful technique change. In this episode, I explore what is involved in: opening an athlete’s performance black box to get the new technique in place and then hiding the key so that it is resistant to the effects of pressure.

Research confessions: Why aren’t practitioners reading our papers?

Links to articles discussed:

Switching tools: perceptual-motor recalibration to weight changes

Two methods for recommending bat weights

On the fragility of skilled performance: what governs choking under pressure?

Refining and regaining skills in fixation/diversification stage performers: the Five-A Model

A case study of technical change and rehabilitation: Intervention design and interdisciplinary team interaction

Sources, topics and use of knowledge by coaches

To What Extent do the Findings of Laboratory-Based Spatial Attention Research Apply to the Real-World Setting of Driving?

The Perception & Action Podcast is going LIVE and I want you to be involved (or at least just watch). On Wednesday November 11, 2015 at 9AM AZ/8 AM PST I will host my first live discussion on the general topic of skill acquisition using blab.im. My co-host for this topic will be performance advisor and coach for the NFL, Shawn Myszka.

Blab.im is a new platform which allows up to 4 people to video chat. The fun thing is that people can jump in an out for as long as they like and "fill the seats" around the discussion table. There is also a chat room for people to get side discussions going and/or ask questions.

To subscribe so you will be notified when we do go live please go to:

https://blab.im/rob-gray-the-perception-action-podcast-live-skill-acquisition-in-sports-1

For more information please see:

http://perceptionaction.com/live/

If you can't make the live event the audio will be used to create a future podcast episode and the video will be posted on http://perceptionaction.com/live/

Finally, I will be hosting more of these in the future so if you have topic ideas and/or would like to be a co-host please contact me.
