Abstract | This study used signal detection theory to conceptualize the problem a baseball batter faces when deciding whether or not to swing at a pitch. It examined the launch angle (LA) criteria used by expert (college players) and less experienced (recreational league players) batters using a baseball batting simulation. This study showed that, although expert and less skilled baseball players appear to use the same information when deciding whether to initiate or inhibit their swing for a particular pitch (the LA), experts used this information differently such that they had greater decision-making sensitivity. (Contains 2 figures and 1 table.) (ERIC). |
