This study sampled the constraints from basketball to create a representative environment by examining the effect of a defender on the shooting performance of skilled female basketballers. Participants performed a one-on-one defended shooting task and an undefended shooting task. Temporal variables were recorded during each shooting task, and a sample of the cohort completed a focus group to gain qualitative insights into each testing condition. Results found that the defended condition caused a decrease in shooting accuracy and shot execution time, with an increase in ball flight time and jump time compared to the undefended condition. Within-subject variability increased in the defended condition for jump time and shot execution time, suggesting that the presence of the defender prompted players to change their movements. Shooting accuracy in the defended condition showed a high correlation to the shooting accuracy exhibited in competition statistics. Qualitative data revealed three themes; affective-cognitive response, sampling to design representative practice tasks, and shooting as an adaptive skill. Introducing a defender into a shooting practice task created a more representative activity that influenced the players’ shooting technique and accuracy. The players adapted to the presence of a defender by executing their shot faster, increasing jump time, and increasing the flight time of the ball. Sampling key performance constraints to create defended situations may encourage a more adaptable technique, resulting in greater skill transfer from training to in-game performance.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":54536,"journal":{"name":"Psychology of Sport and Exercise","volume":"78 ","pages":"Article 102828"},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2025-02-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143477322","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We constructed an aggregated correlation matrix and performed path analysis using structural equation modeling. AMOS 26.0 software was used to estimate model parameters, including path coefficients, standard errors, and various model fit indices.</div></div><div><h3>Results</h3><div>The results indicate that behavioral intention serves as a key predictor of behavior, showing a significant positive direct effect (β = 0.416, p &lt; 0.001). Intention also significantly predicts both action planning (β = 0.439, p &lt; 0.001) and coping planning (β = 0.360, p &lt; 0.001), though its impact on behavior is mediated differently by these two forms of planning. Mediation analysis further revealed that intention indirectly predicts behavior through coping planning (β = 0.067, p &lt; 0.001), while the mediation effect through action planning was not significant (β = −0.001, p &gt; 0.05). PBC played multiple roles: it directly predicts behavior (β = 0.106, p &lt; 0.001), indirectly predicts behavior through intention (β = 0.282, p &lt; 0.001), and further mediates behavior through intention and coping planning (β = 0.046, p &lt; 0.001), as well as through coping planning alone (β = 0.032, p &lt; 0.001).

We focused on microsaccadic eye movements that happen before saccade responses in either pro- or anti-saccade tasks, as these microsaccades reflect ongoing preparatory processes during saccade planning before execution. We hypothesized that athletes, compared to non-athletes, would demonstrate better preparation, given research generally indicating higher inhibitory control in athletes. Our findings showed that microsaccade rates decreased before target appearance, with lower rates observed during anti-saccade preparation compared to pro-saccade preparation. However, microsaccade rates and metrics did not differ significantly between athletes and non-athletes. Moreover, reduced microsaccade rates were associated with improved task performance in non-athletes, leading to higher accuracy and faster saccade reaction times (SRTs) in trials without microsaccades.
