Anticiption, deception and perception 2 Flashcards
The fact that goalkeepers do save some goals evidences what?
that they are able to anticipate where the ball is going.
How may anticipation be enhanced?
by looking at information about the kicker and their past penalty statistics as well as through technologies such as eye movement analysis and video analysis.
Use of video occlusion also allows…..
researchers to see key bits of information that are being picked up by expert goalkeepers, and potentially use this to help train less skilled goalkeepers.
A study by Glencross & Cibich (1997) illustrated….
that players who react to the ball rather than anticipating its intended destination, are unlikely to be successful.
However, a study by Dicks et al (2011) found that…..
goalkeepers who focus on the movement of the kicking leg on approach to the ball and the placement of the non-kicking foot are less vulnerable to deception and more accurately able to anticipate where the ball is going.
Research suggests that….
expert goalkeepers are more capable of doing this than novices and the superiority of these perceptual skills implies that they can be trained but the BASES statement does not mention anything about this nor its effects.
What complicates a keepers ability to use anticipation?
the fact that kickers can use deception to try and intentionally disguise their kicking action and thus make visual anticipation more difficult for the goalkeeper.
