“…Their interpretation was that the decreased RTs in gamers playing action games was correlated to feedforward processing. Football players trended toward faster RTs than controls; consistent with the findings of Lesiakowski et al (2017) that traditional physical athletes had significantly faster RTs in button pressing to a visual cue.…”

Reaction time (RT), time to respond to a stimulus, has been shown to be faster among traditional physical athletes and esport competitors than nonathletes/noncompetitors; however, no comparison has been made between traditional physical athletes and esport competitors. This research examined RTs of healthy 18 to 22 year-old college football athletes, esport competitors, and a control group (n = 12 for each group). RT (ms) to visual (color cue test, ruler drop test), auditory (sound cue test), and tactile stimuli (probe grabbing test) was collected in duplicate. RTs for individual tests and calculated composite RTs were compared between groups by ANOVA and post hoc t-tests. RTs to auditory stimuli were significantly slower than to visual or tactile stimuli (F(140, 3) = 286.5, p = 0.0000). Esport competitors significantly outperformed noncompetitive controls in probe grabbing (p = 0.0175) and ruler drop tests (p = 0.0016). Football players had similar faster RTs in probe grabbing (p = 0.0002) and ruler drop tests (p = 0.0013) compared to controls. Esport competitors also had significantly faster RTs in the color cue test than controls (p = 0.05). Although esport competitors and football athletes had faster composite RTs than controls (p = 0.0042 and p = 0.0104, respectively), RTs between esport competitors and football athletes were not significantly different. A trend was seen in that esport competitors had faster RTs than football athletes in all tests except probe grabbing. Involvement in esports or football is positively correlated with faster RT, although it is not demonstrated whether play improves RT or those with inherently faster RTs tend to excel in activities requiring rapid response.

“…A literatura exibe evidências de que o tempo de reação em atletas é menor quando comparado ao de não-atletas (6)(7)(8)11,19,20). Na mesma direção, em um comparativo envolvendo tempo de velocidade, reação e atenção seletiva em crianças do sexo masculino, praticantes e não praticantes de karatê, foi evidenciado que o karatê é capaz de promover melhorias no TR motora e que os praticantes (de qualquer idade) desta modalidade possuem um TR menor quando comparados aos não praticantes (8).…”

“…Em outra análise, dependendo da modalidade que se pratica, podem ocorrer apenas melhora no processamento de informações sendo, portanto, mais rápido e eficiente quando associado com a atenção. Ou seja, é possível que o treinamento esportivo facilite uma gama mais ampla de adaptação neural (neuroplasticidade) que resulte em melhora na atenção durante a discriminação do estímulo, particularmente, no caso de esportes que requerem um forte envolvimento da percepção (19). Portanto, distintas variedades de gestos que ocasionem uma alta exigência na atuação do Sistema Nervoso Central devem resultar em diferentes TR.…”

Introdução: Parâmetros morfofuncionais e sensório-motores podem estar associados com o desempenho em praticantes de taekwondo (TKD). Objetivo: Comparar a eficácia de processos sensório-motores e parâmetros morfofuncionais associados em jovens adultos universitários, comparando sedentários com atletas de TKD. Métodos: A amostra foi por conveniência constituída por 15 sujeitos do sexo masculino divididos em dois grupos: grupo taekwondo (TKD) e grupo controle (GC), não praticantes de exercício físico (sedentários). Os parâmetros morfofuncionais examinados foram avaliações antropométricas (massa corporal, estatura, Índice de Massa Corporal: IMC) e qualidades físicas (flexibilidade toracolombar e força escapular). Para verificação da eficácia dos processos sensório-motores foi aplicado o teste do tempo de reação (TR) utilizando-se o aplicativo TReaction. Os dados foram apresentados como estatísticas descritivas com valores de média e desvio padrão. Para avaliar a normalidade de distribuição, utilizou-se o teste Shapiro Wilk. O teste t para amostras independentes foi aplicado para comparação entre os grupos. O nível de significância foi estabelecido a 95%. Resultados: Houve diferença estatisticamente significativa nos processos sensório-motores TR (t(13)=-2,904, p=0,0012) e em flexibilidade (t(13)=2,583, p=0,023) na comparação de sedentários com atletas de TKD. Não houve diferenças significativas nos parâmetros morfológicos (massa corporal, estatura, IMC) e em idade. Conclusão: Tais resultados sugerem que um menor TR no TKD pode ser resultado de uma melhor adaptação neuromuscular em decorrência da prática sistemática da modalidade. A mesma inferência pode ser feita a partir dos valores superiores para a flexibilidade toracolombar para o grupo TKD.

“…With a very similar level of fitness-related abilities, reserves in improving results are expected to lie in improving coordination and perceptual abilities [25]. Hence, the search for their importance to many different sports is obvious, including in judo and badminton [11,14,19,20,23,30,34].…”

SummaryStudy aim: To determine the level and internal structure of profiles of coordination motor abilities in elite judokas and badminton players compared to a group of non-athletes.Material and methods: The material for the study was the results collected from 12 competitors of the Polish national badminton team (age: 22.7 ± 4.5), 10 members of the national judo team who represented mean weight categories (age: 23.0 ± 3.3) and 25 non-athletes, who were male university students of the Faculty of Physical Education and Sport (age: 23.0 ± 0.8). The scope of the study included basic somatic features and selected coordination motor abilities measured by means of computer tests.Results: Statistically significant differences between badminton players and judokas were obtained for reaction times (visual, auditory and selective) as well as spatial orientation. In all cases, a higher level was found for badminton players. Furthermore, analysis of differences between badminton players and non-athletes revealed statistically significant differences only for the selective reaction time. A substantial differentiation of the internal structure of the models of coordination motor abilities was obtained. This pattern was particularly noticeable in the group of judokas and badminton players, where the difference between characteristics was ca. 0.76 SD. Substantially smaller differences (0.21 SD) between particular variables included in the coordination profile were found for non-athlete university students.Conclusion: The lower results of the elite judokas show the need for developing the coordination motor abilities during training. The largest reserves are to be found in raising the level of reaction times and spatial orientation.
