Brain regions concerned with the identification of deceptive soccer moves by higher-skilled and lower-skilled players
Abstract: Expert soccer players are able to utilize their opponents' early body kinematics to predict the direction in which the opponent will move. We have previously demonstrated enhanced fMRI activation in experts in the motor components of an action observation network (AON) during sports anticipation tasks. Soccer players often need to prevent opponents from successfully predicting their line of attack, and consequently may try to deceive them; for example, by performing a step-over. We examined how AON activations…

“…Inconsistent with the findings of the present study, several previous studies did not find an effect of more skilled action anticipation (Abreu et al, 2012; Wright et al, 2013; Wu et al, 2013). As mentioned in the introduction, whether or not a significant effect is identified may be related to whether the participants were presented with the trajectory of the moving object and whether the participants in the control group had any experience with the related sport.…”
