Abstract:
Soccer is a competitive sport that relies on distinct motor skills and cognitive processes. However, cognitive aspects are often overlooked, with a focus mainly on motor skills. Limited research has explored screening tests within motor-cognitive navigation dual-task (DT) paradigms. This study aims to validate a sensitive approach for assessing soccer-specific dribbling by evaluating the Trail-Dribbling Test (TDT) as a method to differentiate high-performance (HP) from low-performance (LP) players. Two hundred and seventy-five participants (41 females) aged between 12 and 34 completed the Trail-Making Test (TMT), the Trail-Walking Test (TWT), and the soccer-specific TDT under three levels of cognitive load. Results indicated shorter TDT durations for HP compared to LP players, with increased cognitive load accentuating differences (TDT-M: p = 0.044, d = 0.260; TDT-A: p < 0.001, d = 0.449; TDT-B: p < 0.001, d = 0.653). The TDT effectively discriminated between HP and LP players in the 14-15 (AUC = 0.712-0.820) and 16-17 age groups (AUC = 0.634-0.839). In conclusion, the ecologically valid TDT demonstrates the potential for quantifying soccer-specific dribbling, offering insights into motor and cognitive aspects of dribbling performance, especially among soccer players aged 14-17.
摘要:
足球是一项竞技运动,依赖于不同的运动技能和认知过程。然而,认知方面经常被忽视,主要关注运动技能。有限的研究探索了运动认知导航双任务(DT)范式中的筛查测试。这项研究旨在通过评估Trail-DribblingTest(TDT)作为区分高性能(HP)和低性能(LP)球员的方法,来验证评估足球特定运球的敏感方法。二百七十五名参与者(41名女性),年龄介乎十二至三十四岁,步行试验(TWT),以及三个认知负荷水平下足球特有的TDT。结果表明,与LP玩家相比,HP的TDT持续时间较短,与认知负荷增加突出差异(TDT-M:p=0.044,d=0.260;TDT-A:p<0.001,d=0.449;TDT-B:p<0.001,d=0.653)。TDT有效区分了14-15岁(AUC=0.712-0.820)和16-17岁年龄段(AUC=0.634-0.839)的HP和LP球员。总之,生态有效的TDT证明了量化足球特定运球的潜力,提供对运球表现的运动和认知方面的见解,尤其是14-17岁的足球运动员。
