News: Are brain areas that produce movement involved in anticipating it? How can we reduce motion sickness?

Why do great athletes claim that on some nights baseballs look as big as a grapefruit, basketball hoops are like oceans and things move in slow motion? Are they just blowing a lot of hot air or is this really the way they see the world? In this episode, I explore embodied perception in sport…the idea that the way we see the world changes as a function of our action capabilities (e.g., whether we are an expert or novice, whether we are fresh or fatigued, etc). I also consider how we might take advantage of these effects in sports training programs.

Embodied Perception and the Economy of Action

Embodied perception in sport

Apparent Ball Size Is Correlated With Batting Average

Being selective at the plate: processing dependence between perceptual variables relates to hitting goals and performance

Action-specific effects in aviation: What determines judged runway size?

Target-directed visual attention is a prerequisite for action-specific perception

How “Paternalistic” Is Spatial Perception?

An Embodied Approach to Perception: By What Units Are Visual Perceptions Scaled?

Action’s Effect on Perception

Size estimates remain stable in the face of differences in performance outcome variability in an aiming task

Attentional focus, perceived target size, and movement kinematics under performance pressure

How does an athlete get their glove, racquet, hand, or foot to the right place at the right time to hit, catch or strike a moving object? In this episode, I explore visual information that can be used to judge the time to contact and direction of motion of an approaching object and how it can be applied to the outfielder problem.

Research Confessions: The time I nearly published completely artifactual results

Links to articles discussed:

The Black Cloud

Lee’s 1976 paper

Grasping tau

Accuracy of estimating time to collision using binocular and monocular information

Estimating the time to collision with a rotating nonspherical object

The visual perception of motion in depth

Catching a baseball: OAC

How baseball outfielders determine where to run to catch fly balls

Unconfounding the direction of motion in depth, time to passage and rotation rate of an approaching object

Motion perception and driving: predicting performance through testing and shortening braking reaction times through training

How do great athletes seem to know what is going to happen next? What information to they use to predict the next serve will be cross court instead of down the line, how does a baseball batter know the next pitch will be a fastball, and how does an NFL quarterback know the defense will blitz? Can these abilities be improved through training? In this episode I explore the topic of anticipation in sports.
