Do Expert Fencers Engage the Same Visual Perception Strategies as Beginners?

Abstract: An effective visual perception strategy helps a fencer quickly react to an opponent’s actions. This study aimed to examine and compare visual perception strategies used by high-performance foil fencers (experts) and beginners. In an eye tracking experiment, we analysed to which areas beginning and expert fencers paid attention during duels. Novices paid attention to all examined areas of interest comprising the guard, foil (blade and tip), armed hand, lower torso, and upper torso of their opponents. Experts, h… Show more

“…For example, in the study examining abstract paintings between artists and nonartists, it was seen that the fixations number and duration of the artists were lower and similar to our study (Koide et al, 2013). Again, when the relevant literature was examined, it was revealed that the groups applied different visual search strategies in unconditional eye-tracking studies conducted by dividing the groups into groups such as expert/novice, experienced/inexperienced, or educated/uneducated (Dogusoy-Taylan and Cagiltay, 2014;Durugbo, 2021;Witkowski et al, 2021). In this context, it is expected that the cognitive processes of the educated participants will be different from the uneducated participants.…”

“…Finally, our research does not provide an answer to the question of how the changes observed in visual processing can impact athletes' on-field performance. It is crucial for sports practice to uncover the effects of vision training on athletes' sport-specific movements (far transfer) ( Kohmura et al, 2019 ; Witkowski et al, 2021 ), which in our case requires additional analysis.…”
