| Abstract(in English) | The present study investigated the effect of highly stressful demands for accuracy on the kinematic characteristics of batting movements In a computer-simulated batting task, fourteen right-handed subjects were asked to hit a moving ball and try to hit the target as accurately as possible. Results showed some kinematic features which indicated that the subjects adopted more constrained movement strategies. These features were also found in previous studies in which accuracy demand was manipulated by altering task difficulties(e.g., target size). The present findings demonstrated that, even when the degree of task difficulty itself did not change, the subjects tried to reproduce same movement trajectories with an incentive for superior performance. These results were discussed in line with the relationships between the visuomotor and emotional systems. |
