Self-Talk in a Basketball-Shooting Task

Perceptual and Motor Skills, 2001
This study examined the effectiveness of two different types of self-talk on the performance of a basketball-shooting task. 60 physical education and sports sciences students were organized into one control and two treatment groups which used self-talk.

ATTENTIONAL STYLE AND BASKETBALL SHOOTING

Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1991
Nideffer in 1976 predicted chat athletes with particular predisposing attentional styles will be better able to “concentrate” or “focus” in the sport setting. This study tested whether the attention scales of the Test of Attentional and Interpersonal Style were correlated with the percentage of field goals and free throws made during a season by 12 ...

Basketball Jump Shooting Is Controlled Online by Vision

Experimental Psychology, 2007
Abstract. An experiment was conducted to examine whether basketball jump shooting relies on online visual (i.e., dorsal stream-mediated) control rather than motor preprogramming. Seventeen expert basketball players (eight males and nine females) performed jump shots under normal vision and in three conditions in which movement initiation was delayed ...

Biomechanics Analysis of Shooting in Basketball

Applied Mechanics and Materials, 2014
By literature review, expert interview, and biomechanical methods, in this study using 3D film analyzing system to reveal the kinematics parameters of shooting in basketball players. The purpose of this study is to investigate the characteristics of joint angles at release and reveal the reason for improving the hit rate in shooting.

Changes in Basketball Shooting Patterns as a Function of Distance

Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1999
The effect of distance on the accuracy and movement form in basketball shooting was examined using a dynamic systems approach. Five male and five female young adults ( M = 26 yr.) with no basketball experience beyond regular physical education shot a basketball 20 times at each of eight distances from 5 to 40 ft. (Natural condition).

Basketball Shooting

2012
NBA Hall of Famer Michael Jordan put it best: “You miss 100 percent of the shots you don’t take.” With Basketball Shooting as your coach, you can hit the court with confidence in your ability to make any shot from anywhere on the court. Shooting is an art, and in this special book and DVD package, professional shooting coach Dave Hopla ...

Prediction of Basketball Free Throw Shooting by OpenPose

2019
OpenPose, which is developed by Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) presented in CVPR 2017, takes in real-time motion images via a simple web camera and is capable of recognizing skeletons of multiple persons in these images. It also generates recognized skeleton point coordinates to files.

The effects of increased shooting distance in the basketball jump shot

Journal of Sports Sciences, 1993
Three-dimensional video techniques (50 Hz) were used to obtain images of basketball jump shots from one of three distances--short range (group 1, n = 5); medium range (group 2, n = 5); long range (group 3, n = 5)--from the basket, as performed by members of the men's quarter-finalist teams at the games of the XVI Universiade in Sheffield in 1991 ...

The role of ball path curvature in basketball shooting accuracy

Journal of Sports Sciences
During the shooting motion of a basketball, the path of the ball from the beginning of the lift to release follows an S-shaped trajectory. This study is the first to investigate how two distinctive features of the S-shaped ball path, the maximum curvature, κmax, and terminal curvature, σ, are associated with longitudinal accuracy.
