The present study aimed to understand changes in visual search strategies before and after intervention, in addition to examining the training effect of Multiple Object Tracking (hereafter MOT) skills. Participants were 29 male university baseball players. They were grouped into the training group (Group T; 19 participants) and the control group (Group C; 10 participants). The three-week intervention comprised MOT tasks. As a result of the intervention, significant interaction was observed between the groups as well as before and after intervention. Group T showed a significant increase in scores of the MOT tasks after intervention as compared to those before intervention. Subsequently, we examined the changes in visual search strategies among six participants with a large training effect (LTE group) and six participants with a small training effect (STE group). Consequently, the gaze travel distance of the post-intervention LTE group was short and the travel speed of the stationary point was large, which was interpreted to have a moderate effect size without a significant difference. These results suggest that for university baseball players, MOT skills can be acquired by training. Furthermore, we did not see any clear change in visual search strategies brought about by MOT skills training. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
