Quick decision making is a vital factor for a successful pass in soccer games. Many previous studies of decision making in soccer focused on motor execution, but inhibitory processing has remained unclear. This study aimed to clarify the differences in motor execution and inhibitory among Japanese collegiate soccer players with different skill levels. We evaluated the behavioral data and event-related potentials in the high-skilled, low-skilled, and novice groups during the Go/No-go and pass choice reaction tasks. The reaction time (RT) was significantly shorter in the high group than in the novice group, and RT variability was small in the high group. The amplitude of the N2 component was significantly larger in the high group than in the low and novice groups, and the latency of the P3 component was significantly shorter in the high and low groups than in the novice group during the pass choice reaction task. The subtracted No-go N2 amplitude was also significantly larger in the high and low groups than in the novice group, and correlations existed between the RT, RT variability, and the subtracted No-go N2 amplitude during these tasks. These data indicate that soccer players' behavioral responses and inhibition processing decision-making activities are associated with skill levels.
快速决策是足球比赛成功传球的关键因素。以往许多关于足球决策的研究都集中在运动执行上,但抑制性加工仍不清楚。本研究旨在阐明不同技能水平的日本大学生足球运动员在运动执行和抑制方面的差异。我们评估了高技能组、低技能组和新手组在“是/否”和传球选择反应任务中的行为数据和事件相关电位。高技能组的反应时间(RT)显著短于新手组,且高技能组的RT变异性较小。在传球选择反应任务中,高技能组的N2成分波幅显著大于低技能组和新手组,高技能组和低技能组的P3成分潜伏期显著短于新手组。高技能组和低技能组的减法“否”N2波幅也显著大于新手组,并且在这些任务中RT、RT变异性与减法“否”N2波幅之间存在相关性。这些数据表明,足球运动员的行为反应和抑制性加工决策活动与技能水平相关。
