Presentation Transcript

  1. Research backdrop… Visuomotor Skills: • LEARN • REFINE (master) • PERFORM (under pressure)

  2. Visual control- The Quiet Eye • Experts seem to know where and when to look... • The duration of the final fixation prior to movement is critical...! • Named the Quiet Eye • (QE; Vickers, 1996) • Longer QE for experts and successful shots. • Shorter QE when anxious.

  3. Can we train the QE? • (rather than the movement) • LEARN • REFINE • PERFORM

  4. Train to adopt expert QE: • Different sports. • Novice and elite. • QE trained vs. Control. • Training phase. • Testing phase: • Retention (learning) • Pressure (anxiety)

  5. VINE, S.J. & Wilson, M.R. (2011). The influence of quiet eye training and pressure on attention and visuo-motor control. ActaPsychologica: 136, 340–346.

  6. Applications to Surgery... • Laparoscopic surgery: • - ‘Key hole’ surgery • ...is challenging: • - Elongated tools • - 2D Image on screen • ...and stressful: • - Under pressure • - Multi - tasking

  7. Keep your eyeson the prize... Thank you!
