“…In a behavioral study by Vickers and Lewinski (2012), differences in attention and inhibition were tested in elite and rookie police officers using what could be considered a real-world application of the Go/NoGo task. In their study, police officers had to use a handgun when a deadly weapon was drawn by an assailant, or inhibit their shot when a cell phone was drawn.…”

“…Several scientists have proposed theories to explain how anxiety affects performance (e.g., Cusp Catastrophe Model, Hardy, 1996, Hardy & Parfitt, 1991Processing Efficiency Theory [PET], Eysenck & Calvo, 1992; Attentional Control Theory [ACT], Eysenck, Derakshan, Santos, & Calvo, 2007). However, despite the wealth of research exploring the links between anxiety and performance, few researchers have assessed the impact of anxiety on anticipation judgements in time-constrained environments (for exceptions, see Smeeton, Williams, Hodges, & Ward, 2005;Vickers & Lewinski, 2012;Williams & Elliott, 1999). Yet, the ability to process information and to anticipate the actions of others under severe time pressure is an essential component of performance in numerous domains such as sport, law enforcement, aviation, and military combat (Vickers & Lewinski, 2012).…”

“…Longitudinal assessment using a flight simulator revealed that a group of general aviation expert pilots had better flight summary scores and better execution of aviation communications than a group of less skilled pilots (Taylor, Kennedy, Noda, & Yesavage, 2007). A group of expert law enforcement officers shot more accurately and made fewer decision errors than a group of less skilled officers (Vickers & Lewinski, 2012). A group of expert karate athletes were capable of anticipating an opponent's attack to block better than a group of near-expert karate athletes (Rosalie & Müller, 2013).…”
