“…The difference in cognitive strategy is associated with superior performance during coincident timing tasks, and it is based on past experience (Goodgold-Edwards, 1991). In a batting situation, a player's goals are to hit the ball hard and in a correct manner.…”

“…Problems that individuals with CP had in learning a motor skill may relate to factors considered to be cognitive or perception of movement. The abhty to remember and repeat a series of movements, as well as the abllity to predict and accurately intercept (touch or hit) a moving target, have been shown to be problematic for children with CP (Lesny, Nachtmann, Stehlk, Tomankova, & Zajidkova, 1990;Goodgold-Edwards, 1991). Goodgold-Edwards and Gianutsos (1990) proposed that children with spastic CP may have difficulty performing timing tasks (interception of a target) as cognitive strategies are inefficient rather than slowness being attributable to constrained movement.…”

People with cerebral palsy (CP) usually have decreased ability to learn new movements and decreased movement speed. This study examined the ability of 10 adolescents with CP (M age = 16.2 yr., SD = 1.9 yr.) to achieve a target speed on an tipper extremity ballistic task and to detect speed errors in their movements, compared to the performance of 10 adolescents with no disability (M age = 15.7 yr., SD = 1.7 yr.). Subjects were instructed to slide a lever along a track in 150 msec., then guess their movement time. Knowledge of results feedback was provided on the first 50 trials except for Trials 11-20 on Day 1. Knowledge of results feedback was withheld on Day 2, Trials 51-60, to assess learning and retention of the skill. Speed Error and Error Detection were compared for two groups of adolescents on Trials 51-60. Independent t tests indicated a significant difference between the two groups for both Speed Error and Error Detection. Examination of individual scores of the adolescents with CP indicated that half scored within the range of the control group, and variability of skills within the group with CP was high. Some individuals with CP have deficits in accuracy of movement speed and error detection unrelated to their severity of CP which may affect their ability to learn new movements.

“…CAT is therefore important in externally paced sports containing uncertainty (Singer, Cauraugh, Chen, Steinberg, & Frehlich, 1996). CAT tasks require accurate com-pletion of several phases: (1) a sensory phase where sensory information is used to detect, correct and guide motor actions (Goodgold-Evans, 1991), (2) a sensory-motor integration phase during which the time and place of the arriving stimulus and the motor response are determined, and (3) the execution or motor phase (Fleury & Bard, 1985).…”

The aim of this study was to examine the effect of exercise intensity on coincidence anticipation timing [CAT] performance at different stimulus speeds. Fourteen young adults (11 males and 3 females) volunteered to participate in the study following ethical approval. After familiarisation, coincidence anticipation was measured using the Bassin Anticipation Timer under three conditions: rest, moderate-intensity and high-intensity exercise with stimulus speeds of 3, 5 and 8 mph, set using an incremental running protocol until the participants reached a steady state of 70% and 90% of heart rate reserve (HRR), respectively. Results indicated a significant exercise intensity × stimulus speed interaction (p=0.0001) for absolute error (AE). There were no significant differences in AE across exercise intensities at a stimulus speed of 3 mph (p>0.05). AE was poorer during high-intensity exercise (90% HRR) compared to rest (p=0.022), and moderate-intensity (70% HRR) exercise (all, p=0.004 or better) at 5 and 8 mph. Variable error (VE) was similar across exercise intensities at stimulus speeds of both 3 and 5 mph (p>0.05). At a stimulus speed of 8 mph, VE was significantly poorer during high-intensity exercise compared to rest (p=0.006) and moderate-intensity exercise (p=0.008). There were no significant differences for constant error (p>0.05) across exercise intensities or stimulus speeds. High-intensity exercise is associated with poorer CAT performance. However, stimulus speed plays a key role within this association where faster stimulus speeds were associated with a more marked decrease in coincidence anticipation performance.
