info_outline 487 – Do the classic motor learning effects (eg focus of attention, choice) apply to experts?The Perception & Action Podcast
A look at a recent study that addresses a question I get quite often: do the basic principles of motor learning, in this case, those proposed by OPTIMAL theory, still hold when we are dealing with highly skilled athletes?

info_outline 486 – Functional Variability in the Cricket Bowling DeliveryThe Perception & Action Podcast
A look at a recent study that provides evidence that cricket bowlers use movement variability (as opposed to repeatability) to regulate the timing and speed of their delivery. And looking back at a classic in ecological dynamics – the first study to show this effect.

info_outlineWhat is the relevance of ocular dominance for the control of action? How might it effect an athlete’s choice of stance or side? Is there any evidence to support the idea that being cross-dominant (different dominant hand and dominant eye) is advantageous in sports?
