Does perceptual-motor training improve behavioral abilities of handball players?

Problem Statement: Handball is becoming more dynamic and complicated. The athlete must therefore use his or her cognitive abilities, especially perception and sensorimotor coordination, to remember, evaluate, conclude and react immediately. Perceptual-motor training can stimulate perception processes, coordination, and attention. It uses an information system through peripheral perception, increased sensorimotor coordination of limb work, general attention, and precision in analyzing the perception of sensory signals. Approach: The following tests from the Vienna Test System were performed for all the individuals from the study group (VST handbook): peripheral perception test (PP), sensorimotor coordination test (SMK), and general attention test (COG). The measurements were performed before and after 20 perceptual-motor training sessions (PMT BLINK PRO) conducted twice a week. Purpose: The aim of the study is to determine the effect of perceptualmotor training using the Blink Pro reflexometer on peripheral perception, sensorimotor coordination, and general attention of handball players. It was examined whether and to what extent the applied perceptual-motor training improves sensorimotor coordination, peripheral perception, and general attention in handball players. Results: Changes in the sensorimotor coordination test that evaluates eye-hand-foot coordination observed for two indicators at p = 0.000, i.e. time in ideal area% throughout the test and time in ideal area% after five minutes. The relationship between peripheral perception and general attention after perceptual motor training was observed at p
