Abstract

The objective of this study was to examine the precision of reaching movements to remembered target distances in the lack of visual information. Subjects were professional basketball players and nonathlete university students. The basketball players, having well-trained manual skills, performed better than the non-athlete students. Increase in the overestimation of the remembered target distances was found under the effect of fatigue. A weight load on the sliding handle caused some decrease in the errors of reaching the remembered targets. No significant gender differences were found.
