Brief Summary
|
This study is to investigate the association between professional Kabaddi athletes’ oculomotor parameters, including saccadic eye movement, fixation stability, gaze tracking, functional vision, and dynamic postural control. The study will recruit 200 collegiate-level Kabaddi players (mean age = 20.8 + 1.39) using a Randomised method, concentrating on their visual performance metrics and oculomotor abilities, postrual control and reaction time. This study evaluates oculomotor performance in order to test the hypothesis that better eye movement control is associated with better decision-making and faster reaction times when playing competitively. |
