Abstract

The article discusses a study on sport and exercise psychology, specifically focusing on the development of a visual skills screening tool for field hockey. Conducted by researchers at the University of Health Sciences, the study involved 481 participants, including players, coaches, and umpires, who rated the importance of 23 visual skills using a 5-point Likert scale. The findings indicated that skills related to visual interception and spatial positioning were deemed more critical than those focused on maintaining attention and recognizing visual objects. The research suggests that this screening tool could aid coaches in selecting visual skills training for athletes and guide future research in sports vision. [Extracted from the article]
