“…Regarding the second mechanism, specifically for fast ball games, quick reactions may often be grounded in the advantage gained from experts having better trained anticipatory processes than novices. Anticipation implies that athletes detect critical movement features in their opponents at an early stage that allow them to predict an action outcome before the action outcome itself has been realized ( Williams et al, 2002 ; Balser et al, 2014 ; Bischoff et al, 2014 ). This could be a reason for shorter RTs.…”

In our everyday environments, we are constantly having to adapt our behavior to changing conditions. Hence, processing information is a fundamental cognitive activity, especially the linking together of perceptual and action processes. In this context, expertise research in the sport domain has concentrated on arguing that superior processing performance is driven by an advantage to be found in anticipatory processes (see Williams et al., 2011, for a review). This has resulted in less attention being paid to the benefits coming from basic internal perceptual-motor processing. In general, research on reaction time (RT) indicates that practicing a RT task leads to an increase in processing speed (Mowbray and Rhoades, 1959; Rabbitt and Banerji, 1989). Against this background, the present study examined whether the speed of internal processing is dependent on or independent from domain-specific motor expertise in unpredictable stimulus–response tasks and in a double stimulus–response paradigm. Thirty male participants (15 team handball goalkeepers and 15 novices) performed domain-unspecific simple or choice stimulus–response (CSR) tasks as well as CSR tasks that were domain-specific only for goalkeepers. As expected, results showed significantly faster RTs for goalkeepers on domain-specific tasks, whereas novices’ RTs were more frequently excessively long. However, differences between groups in the double stimulus-response paradigm were not significant. It is concluded that the reported expertise advantage might be due to recalling stored perceptual-motor representations for the domain-specific tasks, implying that experience with (practice of) a motor task explicitly enhances the internal processing of other related domain-specific tasks.

“…Isto quer dizer que a percepção auditiva poderia ser utilizada para produzir respostas mais rápidas no tênis de mesa. De fato, mesatenistas de alto rendimento parecem utilizar o som do contato da bola com a raquete como indicador para magnitude de rotação (SANTOS et al, 2017), tipo de efeito e até direção da bola (BISCHOFF et al, 2014 (WANG, 1996). A partir de 1970 os chineses (potência mundial na modalidade até os dias de hoje) começaram a estudar sistematicamente os efeitos no tênis de mesa (WANG, 1996).…”

“…(ALEXANDER e HONISH, 2009). Porém, mesmo o atleta não enxergando o toque da raquete na bola, por meio da audição pode ter um resultado positivo em prever a direção da bola (paralela ou diagonal)(BISCHOFF et al, 2014;SANTOS et al, 2017).…”

“…Uma pequena mudança no tempo de reação pode fazer com que a bola vá além dos limites da mesa ou em local indesejado. Muitos jogadores de tênis de mesa da bola enquanto preparam suas respostas motoras, não apenas observam seus oponentes batendo a bola, mas também usam da informação auditiva do contato da bola com a raquete Bischoff et al (2014). mostram que estímulos visuais podem ser detectados mais facilmente quando acompanhados por um som podendo influenciar na antecipação do movimento.…”

“…Based on this information, it is reasonable to assume that auditory perception could be used to induce faster responses in table tennis. In fact, high-performance table tennis players seem to use the sound of the contact of the ball with the racket as an indicator of the spin and speed of the ball ( Bischoff et al, 2014 ). Bischoff et al (2014 ) conducted an experiment in which the participant was required to state the flight direction of the ball from a video recording of a service in table tennis, provided or not with auditory information.…”

Identifying the trajectory and spin of the ball with speed and accuracy is critical for good performance in table tennis. The aim of this study was to analyze the ability of table tennis players presenting different levels of training/experience to identify the magnitude of the ball spin from the sound produced when the racket hit the ball. Four types of “forehand” contact sounds were collected in the laboratory, defined as: Fast Spin (spinning ball forward at 140 r/s); Medium Spin (105 r/s); Slow Spin (84 r/s); and Flat Hit (less than 60 r/s). Thirty-four table tennis players of both sexes (24 men and 10 women) aged 18-40 years listened to the sounds and tried to identify the magnitude of the ball spin. The results revealed that in 50.9% of the cases the table tennis players were able to identify the ball spin and the observed number of correct answers (10.2) was significantly higher (χ2 = 270.4, p <0.05) than the number of correct answers that could occur by chance. On the other hand, the results did not show any relationship between the level of training/experience and auditory perception of the ball spin. This indicates that auditory information contributes to identification of the magnitude of the ball spin, however, it also reveals that, in table tennis, the level of training does not interfere with the auditory perception of the ball spin.
