| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Anticipation is a key skill required for skilled performance in many sports. In recent studies, microsaccades of small and fast involuntary saccades was known that they could occur during visual fixation and show covert attention. The purpose of this study were to measure tennis players' eye movements with EyeLink technology (SR Research Ltd.) when they received a serve of video, to investigate whether microsaccades were detected from their eye movements, and to examine contents of covert attention for serve course anticipation by using frequencies and amplitudes of microsaccades as indexes.
As a result, microsaccades were detected by superimposing a target on a serve video to gaze. It was showed that the indexes of microsaccades were effective to presume visual cues based on covert attention in course anticipation of tennis serve.
