Abstract

The present review concerns certain Human Factors aspects of sport activities. Particular emphasis is given to evaluating experimental work in which the relationship between equipment design and performance capability has been examined. The criterion for inclusion in the current synthesis was the use of a cognitive or behavioral measure as a dependent variable in an empirical investigation. Although this excludes studies reporting physiological parameters, it is not to say such work may not form an important element of any future review. Where possible research was grouped according to some common theme or topic. In addition, the potential benefits of a cohesive study of Human Factors in sport are briefly outlined.
